1 month post-op

I am 1 month post-op and was wondering if some people still get a slight pain in shoulder? I never had this pain before surgery and thought the gas pain in the shoulder would be gone by now. I have heard some people mention that this happens sometimes if they eat too much but this happens regardless if I ate or not. Just wondering if this is fairly common.

I'm also one month post op, yay! I have heard that some people have the shoulder pain for a long time. I'm not entirely sure why, someone else will probably have better advice for you than I do, but I have heard that there are some that do have it.

I agree with Rozie I am also 1 month post op - I have heard some have shoulder discomfort for awhile - sorry your still hurting - My only suggestion is GAS X and walking - heating pad and Heating Pad

I am 5 weeks post op and I still get the shoulder pain. Odd thing is it didn't start until 2 weeks post op. Now I get it if I eat one bite too many or something that makes me gassy. Nothing gets rid of it...nothing. Not Gas X, not walking, heating pad... nothing. I just have to wait it out for it to disappear. I am slowly getting used to what to eat and what not to eat. It is learning how to read the signs my body gives. I wish you all the best in your journeys!
