Can you help.. Wow i read about this before and it is painful. what have you done for the pain..:biggrin:

Walk, walk walk... I know that doesn't sound like it would help, but I promise after I started walking, you can feel the gas moving. I then started burping up some of the air. Walking is the ONLY thing that helped me with the gas.

I had the shoulder pain quite badly as well. Walking does help.. but when it was really bad I didn't even want to move. Heating pad arched around my shoulder helped. GasX strips helped as well. Unfortunately I still get the shoulder gas pain occasionally( esp. if I overeat) , although the Dr. says that's rare.. lucky me! . I'm 6 weeks out.. I'm hoping eventually it will be gone forever!!

Doesn't it SUCK??? :biggrin: The heating pad was the only thing that helped me other than walking. Pain meds didn't touch it! I dealt with it for about 9 days and on the 10th day I woke up and it was all gone. Thank God!
