The chest pain goes away, but I'm 26 days post op and I still get the shoulder pain every now and then. Gas-X and walking helps.....get well soon

I had the SILS procedure on the 7th and you can't even tell I had surgery because it's in my belly button area love it.

Thank you for the responses. HeatherO, I didn't get a hernia repair, but when I spoke to the doctor he says it's gas and to keep walking. He also suggested sleeping flat on the floor. You desribed my pain exactly a pinching sensation, the worst. I will try soaking and sleeping on the floor.

Hey everyone, I'm 21 days post op and this shoulder pain on my left side is unbearable......any suggestions on how long it lasts or what to do to get rid of it....thanks for any help
-
Thanks for the encouragement everyone. I will definately keep everyone posted. @Deekel, I currently don't get the gas pain in my chest anymore, but I still get the pain in my left side of my back/shoulder, it's the worst. Just about once a day, try walking my often and Gas-X helps as well. Get better soon. I was pushed to the mushy stage early, but mostly mash potatoes and fruit. Be blessed everyone

I'm haven't posted since the day before my surgery. I was banded on 10/7/09 and it was a painful and interesting experience. The shoulder and chest pain was almost unbearable and I ended up staying 3 days in the hospital because I kept throwing up. I didn't go back to work until today. The first week and half were tough, but I feel much better and able to exercise. Biggest advice: walk and Gas-X lol. No regrets and currently healing and learning how to eat agin. My first fill is scheduled for 11/17/09. :wink2:
