Hello everyone, I'm currently 5 days post op and I've been having a pain in my left shoulder when I take deep breaths in. Just was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? In thinking it's just from the gas but I have been constantly walking since surgery just wanted to make sure it's not possibly a bigger issue. Thanks for any replies and advice!

Hello! I also had a low bmi of 36 and I was approved and having surgery on the 18th this month. I have acid reflux, an internal hernia of my stomach and horrible depression due to being overweight. I was approved easily. Just stuck to all my appointments and weigh ins and following directions. You'll do just fine Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
