This will get better. Mine hurt terribly for weeks to the point I couldn’t even sip water without pain. Now it is 100% better with only the occasional twinge if I eat too much. Heat help but chewing really really well, eating slowly and stopping eArly helps the most. I understand it’s some nerve entrapment and takes time to heal. It’s can also be a sign of a leak if it’s constant so request a CT well after surgery but 2 days post op it’s totally normal from gas. I had a CT done and no leak but they did leave a piece of my old lap and tubing behind so needed to have that removed later. It was Not the cause of my shoulder d pain but better safe than sorrry. I’m told it’s not uncommon with a hernia repair and does get better over time. I hope you feel better soon.

I used the vitamin md patches Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 193

I stop as soon as I get the slightest twinge and wait 20 minutes to try again. Take very small sips and tiny bites and chew lots. My CT scan shows there might be a piece of the old band left in there but they are not sure. It can be somewhat normal for a while after a hernia repair.

Not yet. Sorry to hijack the post. She's also band to sleeve so wondering it a remnant left behind is a possibly? Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 193

I had a CT scan. No cysts or abscesses but a possibility a piece of the old lapband left behind... Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 193

I had a ct scan and it looks like possibly a piece of the old band was left behind. Waiting on a second opinion. I'm 10 weeks out. Never had this pain with the band. Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 198.8

Hey everyone just wondering what the outcomes were with the shoulder pain? I am eight weeks out from a hernia repair and VSG and I am continuing to have shoulder pain when I eat or drink more than 2-3 oz. My doctor ordered a CT scan to check on things as it seems to be getting worse over time instead of better. Are you guys still having shoulder pain or did it resolve?

They work by increasing stomach acid and they can still cause an ulcer. Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 198.8

I had gallstones and I always felt it as referred pain on my left side. It went away after I had gallbladder out. Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161 Sleeve revision 17 May/17 Sw 217 CW 198.8

As for Protien it's an ongoing struggle. I'm only 5 weeks out so solid Protien is still hard but I have a Protien shake morning and evening and Greek yogurt mid day. The rest I fill with veggies and try to keep carbs under 100g Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161/cw 214 Sleeve revision booked 17 May

I just bought a box of patches. I've only used a few days so don't know yet how effective they are but they sure are easy to use Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161/cw 214 Sleeve revision booked 17 May

My brother used to get those and he swears by hydration along with vit c, magnesium and vit b6. Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161/cw 214 Sleeve revision booked 17 May

I am also 3 days out. I don't find the Protien manageable yet so I'm sticking to watered down grape juice and sugar free Gatorade and beef broth. I'm just trying to meet my liquid goals and once I master that I'll start reintroducing Protien. I'm not down either but I know I'm carrying tons of fluid weight from the iv fluids and water retention post op. It was the same with my lapband it took about a week-10 days to see the scale start to move. I'm just getting in some gentle steps and letting myself heal, the rest will come.

I am 3 days post op and was given little 30 ml cups to sip from. I'm supppsed to take 3 sips to finish each one so that's a very tiny sip at a time. Lap band 2009 Sw 200/lw 161/cw 214 Sleeve revision booked 17 May

I kind of wondered about that as when I had it done in 2009 I also didn't have to do it for the same reason but I had a really difficult recovery with a lot of liver inflammation after my surgery. I am actually thinking about doing it for a week anyways just so that I can shrink the liver down and hopefully have an easier recovery than I did last time.
