Walk Walk Walk!

After surgery my shoulders hurt so bad I honestly thought that they were dislocated.

Walking did help...but you just have to get all the gas moving out.

Walking has helped me so much. I just had surgery the 8th. :)

Yes, walk walk walk! Doctors say the pain is the gas! I also used GAS X strips. Walk every chance you get even if just once or twice around the hallway :o

I got the surgery on Feb. 22nd... also had pain in shoulder and the nurses said it was normal.. not to worry,,,it did pass after a short while.

Get some chewable Gas X or strips and walk! It is gas that had been put into you to expand during surgery,

My shoulders really hurt, too. I found that a heating pad on them really helped. Turn it up high.

Yes, heating pad was a lifesaver in the hospital! I second the gas x strips and walking. I have to walk when I drink anything to help it go down smoother.

I thought the gas only last a few days. I haven't been sleeved yet but that's what I've been coming across. Any idea how long the gas pain lasts?

I'm 5 dpo and I'm still having some gas, just not as much. I have the most when I'm drinking and right after I finish. But my gas pains were not as bad as some of the others I read about. I felt most of it in my chest but didn't get the refered pain to my shoulders.

Its different for all. I was bracing myself for the gas pain, but was lucky and had none. You just never know :)

mine did not last long,,, a few hours a couple of times,, but yes,, walk, walk, walk,
