shoulder pain on an EMPTY stomach?????



Recommended Posts

I am having the shoulder nerve pain when my stomach is empty not full. Before my last fill it was normal if I over ate I got it. Now it happens if my stomach is empty and also it likes to happen at the same time in the afternoon, around 2:00 and I ate my lunch at 12:30 so I know I am not to full.

Also I think I am a little tight not to bad but could this be a reason for the shoulder pain on an empty stomach.

Thanks for you help,

Rae

I got it for approx 1 ½ months constant right after the surgery its just off and on now. I was told it is gas escaping out up to that area I don't seem to have it as bad now that I take antacids but sometimes even that won't help.

i had that up until about 1 month out. asked the dr about it and he also told me it was just gas left over. it went away after time and everything was fine. i used gas x strips and walked alot to help it out.

just to make sure i would call the dr's office and let them know what is going on. thats what they are there for.

The ONLY thing that worked for my gas pain was Maalox with the ingredient simethicone (have to look specifically for that). I tried everything else - and I mean everything - before I heard of simethicone. I took one dose of that Maalox and have never had shoulder pain since.

I get the samething and I find it really hard to believe it is gas leftover when I am 7mo out from my surgery. I also am a little tighter than I was which is a good thing, but I get a awfull pain in my sholder the same time everyday!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
