Left shoulder pain 5 mos post op

I was wondering how many of you are still having left shoulder pain? It seems to be getting worse...IT IS getting worse..when I start to eat is usually when it comes on and it just gets worse even before I feel comfortably full. And it takes awhile to go away....sometimes I raise my left arm over my head or do that and lean to the right just to feel better....I hate it what can I do? And how many of you are experiencing this? I mentioned it once to the Dr I dont remember exactly how he put it or what he said word for word..but if I go in for another fill I will be talking the my actual surgeon about it...~Chantay

It's starting to bother me so bad Im trying to rate it on the pain scale and if it was all the time pain I would be taking tylenol or something.

Well the Dr took out all of my fill on Friday to see if the shoulder pain got better. Well it did. Not completely but for the most part it was better. My Dr told me that I could have it put back today so I would not over eat to much. Well he put it back in and before I even left the office the pain was back. He wants me ot let him know how it is over the next couple days. And then we will go from there to see what my options are. He mentioned a new band that is out that is easier on your stomach. So I will let you know what happens. I do know that I can not keep having this pain all the time.

Sorry to hear that the pain left and then came back. I hope he can figure out how to take care of it soon.:Banane35:

I had shoulder pain off and on for probably a year. Sorry to hear you're having problems. If it makes you feel better, it's all worth it :Banane35:.
