Ok so I was sleeved Monday and released yesterday. No complications no nothing. However I have the worst gas pains ever!! It's in my back, neck, chest, and boy is it painful. Does anyone know what I can do to help get rid of this horrific pain??

Walk. I know you may not feel like it, but it works the best. Some Gas X strips help too.

Congrats on your surgery!!

Try rolling your shoulders, back and forth, and bringing your shoulder blades together....that's what helped me when I got pain in the upper back/shoulder area. Other than that...walk, heating pad and gas-x it up. Good luck on your recovery.

Walk, walk, walk, and then walk some more. Take easy baby steps at first if needed then pick up the pace. I had horrible shoulder and back gas pain for at least a month. Congrats on your surgery!!!

When I was sleeved...I didn't really expierance gas pain much...I was lucky I guess..but I just had my gallbladder surgery last week and omg I had the worse gas pain ever! I did walk..that was the best thing to do.. But I also had my husband massage my neck ad shoulder where the pain was and I used a heating pad...seemed to help for a little..but the more you do it it will go away..also FART!! I know tmi but it does help!!! My pains lasted like 4 days! But each day a little better! Hang in there itll get better..at least now I can sleep good again! :)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
