I had sleeve surgery on the 11th. The shoulder pain seems to be lingering from the gas. The last couple of days it has been almost unbearable. I started back to work and I am hurting so bad. I use a heating pad and gas-x regularly. The pain medication does not help. I have walked plenty as well. It still hurts when I take deep breaths or more suddenly. Need some knew ideas to get rid of this. I can't take much more. I know people's bodies react differently to surgery but shouldn't this be gone by now.

You might want to contact your surgeon? Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

Yeah. That's my next option. Thank you.

agreed, call your surgeon... but i have heard of it lasting for over a month for some people... everyone is different. Good luck - hope your feeling no pain sooner then later.

I called the office this morning. They said it could last 3-4weeks. To not worry. I used salonpas patches last night and did some stretching excercises for my arm and rotator cuff. It seemed to relieve the pain for a few hours so I could sleep. Stayed home from work today. I don't want to over do it. Luckily I have been at my job for 17 years and have more than enough sick hours. Thanks for the encouragement. I need it.

I also had my surgery on the 11th, the pain in my shoulder was so bad it was preventing me from getting enough of my fluids down. I went in for a chest X-ray to find that fluid was building around my left lung and that's what was hurting. I got some antibiotics and within a day or so relief.
