I had my surgery on Monday and besides feeling soreness in my abdomen my shoulder are hurting more then anything. Right after surgery I felt like someone was standing on my shoulders. I can get up walk and I've even been able to get some liquids down but I can't get rid of this pain in my shoulders. It's mainly when I take a deep breath in.anyone have this same issue should I be worried

I too had my surgery Monday and was told that shoulder pain was from gas used during the procedure. Seems normal but if its intolerable call ur dr. Good luck.

I had the exact same thing, and my surgeon kept on telling me it was gas pain. It went away for me eventually but it took about two weeks. Hope you get better soon, and if it gets to much to take call your surgeon.

Yea I'm pretty sure it's gas that's causing the pain I've been trying to go for walks but the rain and my concerned mom is keeping me inside. I'm doing some walking around the house but getting bored and frustrated not much walking getting done. I'll just have to stick it out till Tuesday for my post opt. I'll call my Dr if the pain is unbearable. Thanks

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
