Everyone is different. I am 6 days out and my gas pains pretty much ended day 3. I occasionally still get some pain my left shoulder but that's usually after eating (well, drinking at this stage). Those first few days made me feel like it was NEVER going away. I promise it will! :-)

Mine stopped very suddenly. Days 1 through 7 were the same and horrible. Day 8 was okay, but still annoying. Day 9 and after has been nearly pain free. Most days I can't even tell that I had surgery.

I've said this many times on the board, but I think most of my pain came from drinking milk based products like Protein shakes. I've read several others that suddenly have an adverse reaction to milk.

keep walking as much as you can to get the gas out...and my shoulder hurt horribly until about day 8 and then it was gone..so even though its tough right now, please know that each day that passes, it does get better. keep sipping, keep moving and you must remain positive and upbeat in regards to this new tool that will help you lose weight.

I remember that the first 2 days were the hardest as far as pain for me. I would walk for 5 minutes at a time every couple hours until bedtime and I think that must have helped me A LOT because I didn't have that much gas pain. But everyone is different I think when it comes to the pain part, but it will for sure go away so hang in there!

I was banded the 26th and my gas passions were in my left shoulder and under my left ribs...they finally went away by day 7..but everyone is different, i got an allergic reaction which finally just went away around my incisions, but happy to say my incisions are pretty much completely healed, the only thing i have now is a pulling sensation in my right incision, but don't worry you'll feel better in no time, the time flys by!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
