Shoulder pain still!



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery Monday and still have some shoulder pain. It gets worse when I sit, lay down or walk around the block. Anyone else had this for several days?

That's normal I'm a week out and I still have some discomfort. I am the annoying type so I call my dr when I don't feel right. Call just to be sure

Some people have it for a while. I had shoulder pain when I was full. Didnt stop til I got a fill a year later.

I too had shoulder pain for three months, my 2nd fill got rid of it. It was my soft stop and now its gone.

It's not the same as shoulder pain from gas, it's a nerve pain.

Give it time and when you see your Dr just mention it.

I got banded last Thursday and I'm still having really bad shoulder pain. I have been taking gas x, drinking Water, using a heat pad...it still hurts. I'm hoping it's just because of the gas, since I seem to be having a hard letting it out

I got phazyme gas relief from Walmart and that helped me a million times more than gasx. I was banded on the 29th and in a lot of gas pain for several days, that's the only thing that helped! Good luck guys!

I seem to get a slight hiccup when I'm full... Not that I feel full for long because I am sooo hungry!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
