What did you need after the sleeve?

I agree with the heating pad. It really helped when the gas moved between my shoulders.

Gas in your shoulders??

Gas in your shoulders??

The gas isn't literally in your shoulder.... But the referred pain in your shoulders is the worst!! The gas gets trapped in your belly under your diaphragm and sends pain to your shoulders.

I have not been sleeved yet, but I do know about the gas in the shoulder area, it is from the gas they put in your abdominal area so they can see what they are doing, used in laproscopic procedures. They draw as much out as they can, but sometimes you get the gas in the abdomen and pain in the shoulder area from the gas.

Walk walk and walk. I was up walking as soon as i got to my room. Helped with the pain and got things working. I am 6 weeks post and feel like a new person. Also measure everything you consume. Do not take in too much at one time. I am on regular food and need 135 grams of Protein daily. That is tough to do but I get close. Weight is still falling off. Cloths are an issue also. Nothing fits.

Is that more Protein than normal? My NUT said 60-70 grams a day, so just curious
