Hello all.... I was banded nov 2012 I've recently been experiencing some weird pains. Had pain in my shoulder last week I thought it was the coming if The Lord that's how bad it was. Just out the blue and it lasted for a week. Now the pain has shifted to my middle back! Could this be the gas I've heard ppl talk about on here? I'm burping and farting( excuse me ) but the pain won't go away. I thought those gas pockets were for early banders I'm 11 months in..... Omg this pain please any info will be greatly appreciated

Hello: You need to call your doctor and be seen. He'll probably do a barium swallow and/or a EGD to see what's going on. Don't delay seeing the doctor. It's important to take care of yourself. Please let us know how you're doing later. Sorry about the format as it won't let me create new paragraphs or lines. Sue

years ago, i had symptoms like this and it ended up being my gall bladder/stones..

they removed it...i agree with the above poster, a call to the doctor is def in order

(esp when pain is involved).

I get the same pains at times ,it either says I am working it to hard or I have eaten to much but it does go away I am a yr. out also I have had my Doc, do barium swallows and flouro ,so I am not sure what's going on with your pains but I would ask your doc, just to make sure to ake sure it is normal or not .

Thanks to each if u for responding! I will make an appointment with my Dr. ASAP

So I applied heat pack and the pain moved I was gassy coming out both ends lol but the dr said it happens from time to time! Thank god it wasn't serious
