The shoulder tip pain is the trapped wind. Walk it off xx

So am I...hence the “lesson learnt” statement...?

Four weeks post op & I “tried” a flour tortilla. Ate a quarter & it went down a treat. Then got stuck. Harsh & very painful lesson. Hot sweats with the pain. It has just settled & I’m now left with terrible trapped wind. LESSON LEARNT

Yes happyRN exactly that! I’m finding it so annoying!!

Blimey! My other thing is that the second I start eating or drinking I get awful wind that just travels up & down my oesophagus...like a spirit level. It’s so annoying & in the end I just give up eating!!

It’s crazy isn’t it!!

Agree with all of the above! I’m going to make soup from now on & only use half of my usual stock. I’m amazed at just how salty food really is!!

It’s really strange! Sweet things taste sweeter too! ??‍♀️

Hey guys, I’m 18 days post op & my goodnes things taste so differently. I’ve just bunged a soup in the bin because it tasted so salty!! What’s the science behind my taste buds being so different?!!

Every cuppa I’ve had today I’ve had one of these. They dissolve in your mouth so go down easily & are delish!! I’m on a protein mission now that I’m feeling well. Back to work on monday so really need to get the protein in!

So delicious...not entirely sugar free but fat free (less than 0.5g) a good way to get my protein in I find...

Interesting!!!

I’m day sixteen post op & have stalled for almost a week. There’s no way that’s I’m taking in anywhere near enough calories to stall so I’m keeping the faith that it’s all down to internal post op chemistry going on...

I am 16 days post op & whilst I haven’t gained I’ve been the same weight for a week. I’m just holding onto the faith that there’s no way I’m eating enough calories to stall or gain so it’s gotta be down to post op internal chemistry!!

Ooh perhaps?! Hmm I am starting to realise that things really are gonna have to be very different!!
