Surgery was June 14th and my shoulder is hurting so bad. Anyone else dealing with this problem ?

Yeah I had that. It was really the worst because nothing helps with it. It is just a dull constant ache.

Good news though, it should be gone soon.

I hope so because the pain can be intense and then just go away.

I had that pain and thought I was going to die ! it only happened once I tried to sit or stand up or get ready to lie down, my breathing would get short as well. My nurse told me to get some gasX, I took it and continued to walk and it went away almost over night. Now the only pain I have is in my left side from my largest incision

It is outside your intestinal track. Gas X did nothing for it for me, you just have to move as much as possible.

I would get a pain in my shoulder early on. I figured it was gas. I noticed it when I would eat too fast and It was always the left side.

Mines is on the left side. I told my husband I think I'm have a heart attack.

Call your surgeon if you question the pain or it's intensity. Although it could be normal - it could also be a complication such as blood clots. Please don't take the chance that it's the same pain others have.

I'm doing a lot better now.

Roll your shoulders, walk, Gas-x, heating pad, hot Water bottle. Those are the best recommendations I can give to try.
