I was just banded on July 31st, One night in the hospital, some nausea, but manageble, biggest issue at present is the gas, shoulder and some bloating feeling. Is this normal? any help / advice appreciated

The pain in your shoulder is actually a "referred" pain caused by your diaphram being irritated. I have seen several people say walking and/or gasx seemed to help. I was having this issue last night and kept walking it out and (gross-sorry) trying to expel any gassiness I could. When I woke up this morning it was much better. Good luck.

Walking around and gas X help, it took about 6 days until all of the shoulder pain was gone for me.
