I have a lot of left shoulder pains what could this be ?

Since you aren't newly banded it might be from eating too much or too big of bites. I definitely get shoulder pain when I eat just a little too much. I think it's my "soft stop", but it doesn't start hurting until about 15 minutes after I stopped eating. I'm starting to worry that it may be caused by my pouch being stretched. I'm worried I'm eating too big of bites even though nothing has gotten stuck.

I just noticed your surgeon. Did you go through True Results in Richardson? I did and my surgeon was Marsden.

See that's what I'm worried about is my pouch being stretched

Mine was dr B

Thanks never knew anything about this

You're welcome. I had really bad left shoulder pain the whole time I was banded. I've watched friends suffer with it too. Doctors need to talk about this with banded patients.It's really common. I am sorry you are going through it and hope you feel better.

So ur saying the pain in the left shoulder does not go away

No it goes away but happen very often just about every day
