Over the weekend I came home from running errands and I was thirstily and tired went to the fridge and grabbed some lemonade (I know too many calories I was bad but thought I needed something)

The first cup ( a small paper cup went down easy but I was still thirsty so I took another and dam the calories well the minute I finished and put the cup down I got the most incrediable pain in my left shoulder…if I didn’t know what it was I would have called 911 and been on my way to the hospital

It took a good 15- 20 minutes to go away….never again.. worst pain ever (worst then when they cut out 1/4 of my colon

I wonder about the biology..exactly why does the left shoulder only hurt?

I assume it’s because I drank too much too fast but how does it get up in your chest?

I thought-------------

I didn’t have any restrictions but I guess I was very very wrong

I

i know if i drink anything too fast, i get pain. i think it is the left side because the band is on the left side, not positive though. you might not have a fill, but there is a little restriction, you just don't notice it. most likely the doctor put some saline in during surgery. drinking and eating fast can cause gas too and that is painful.

The phrenic nerve runs up in to your left shoulder and in to your head thats why the pain in the left shoulder.
