I am 5 days post op. Every time I drink my protein shakes I get this sharp pain in my chest. Is this normal? Have others experienced this? What may be causing it?

Are you drinking too much or too fast? You have to have very small sips right now.

I have that too. It's a sharp pain in my chest and after my stomach making noises. I'm 3 days post op.

I've been making sure to take very small sips still so I don't think it's that at all.

It is likley just swelling that is taking time to go down. If you are still having it in the morning, you might call the dr office just to ease your mind.

I am 5 days post op. My dr. Says its gas. I do also feel the sharp pain but more in my shoulders.
