I had my surgery on Monday and besides feeling soreness in my abdomen my shoulder are hurting more then anything. Right after surgery I felt like someone was standing on my shoulders. I can get up walk and I've even been able to get some liquids down but I can't get rid of this pain in my shoulders. It's mainly when I take a deep breath in.anyone have this same issue should I be worried

The same thing happened to me. I am two weeks post op today and still have a little pain in my shoulders when I take a deep breath. Sounds pretty normal to me. Walk, walk, walk and sip Water. It really helps.

Walk, walk, walk is great advice. It could still be the gas they inflate your abdomen with. The only way to get rid of it is exercise so your cells can absorb it. If you still have your gall bladder, that could also be the cause if walking doesn't help.

I had the shoulder pain really bad. the only thing that helped me was a heating pad. Give it a try. Feel better! :)
