mrsto 2,925 Posted July 20, 2013 I'm guessing that it's gas from surgery, but you should run it by your doctor. The gas plays havoc, and it's the left side (shoulder) that's typically affected. 1 beanie80 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beanie80 146 Posted July 20, 2013 I second Mrsinto. While you are waiting to hear back, take some Gas-X and start walking. A heating pad to the affected shoulder helps too. 1 mrsto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ivy Verde 68 Posted July 20, 2013 I had pain there the whole time I was banded. It felt like being repeatedly punched and twisted. My band was in the wrong place and was strangling my stomach. I'd check with your doctor soon to make sure everything's where it should be. Hope you feel better and it's nothing serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady VS 1,147 Posted July 20, 2013 Yes sweetie, that is the gas at work. Just keep walking and taking gas X until it subsides in a few days. Congratulations on your surgery and good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
