granddiva 6 Posted June 9, 2012 I notice no matter what I eat I get a pain in my left neck shoulder area so uncomfortable. Ughhhh !!!! Such a terrible feeling and idea as to why this happens? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deekaspor 89 Posted June 9, 2012 How long ago was your surgery? This can go on for up to a month after. It is the gases being released. I had the same thing and thought it would never go away, but trust me it does. Try Gas-X it lessens the gas, but does not completely take away the pain. Good luck.

granddiva 6 Posted June 9, 2012 I am 8 weeks post opt, should I take the gas-x before or after eating? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smileen 17 Posted June 9, 2012 I took in at the end of each meal and bedtime I was also on prilosec daily I was told to walk, walk, and walk it would help the gas work it s way out of the body. Good luck! won't last much longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deekaspor 89 Posted June 9, 2012 I also took them after a meal. I had a long commute to work and just riding in my car or husband's truck would cause the gas to go crazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
