Pain Between Shoulder Blades

[Angela Johnson 9]

I was sleeved Feb 28th and everything has been going well. Lately I have been have a dull ache between my shoulder blades and around my best breast bone. It almost feels like there is something stuck there. I am still on liquids but I did try some yogurt. Please let me know if this happened to you early on post op.

That's gas, try gas x strips. I had the same problem. It felt like a knife stuck in my shoulder blades. I tried the gas x strips, no more gas. :-)

I'm having the same problem! Just like dolores1976 said, knife thru my shoulders! Just popped in a Gas-X strip now, so I hope that works. I did ask my surgeon about this pain today and he said it must be from something other than the surgery-- THank God for this forum becuase this is obviously a normal part of our recovery. Shows how much he knows! lol Good luck with managing the pain
