Did anyone have terrible gas pain in their left shoulder?? :thumbup:

I have tried everything, and it just keeps coming back.

Any suggestions?? How long does it take to just GO AWAY??!!

I've been banded for one week today.

Thanx for any advice!!

My pain has FINALLY gone away!!

I had my surgery two weeks and two days ago. I haven't had the pain in the last three or four days.

It's been soooo nice!!

I hope your's goes away very soon!!

Wow this thread gives me hope. I am 6 days post op and oh my gosh does my left shoulder HURT. I feel like it is never ever going to go away. If I didn't have that pain I would be feeling great!

I have walked and taken more gas-x strips than I can count and my heating pad and I are very attached at this point and I am still having horrible pain in my shoulder...

Jes

there is hope! i had the really bad left shoulder pain for under two weeks although i know when i ate too much or something i felt like it would come back. someone told me about that and i finally saw the connection.

the heating pad is the only thing that would help mine. Good luck and hang on to the fact that it will go away. some lucky people don't ever experience this! lol

My left shoulder pain and neck pain went away about 10 days post op. thank God that was really unbearable. I am now 5 weeks post op and feel great. Boy has my eating habits changed. I really cannot eat much and I'm choosing to eat the good nutritious food first. I've lost 30 lbs.

this has been a great journey so far. 50 more lbs to go. Good luck everyone with your journey.
