Flup 48 Posted July 29, 2013 Every time I eat and get full, I get a pain in my left collar bone/shoulder area...it's sort of a pinched nerve kinda pain. I'm 8 weeks out today, and this has been happening ever since the surgery. It's not super painful or anything, but it's uncomfortable and lasts for about 20 minutes before going away. Anyone else experience this? Does anyone know what causes it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fixerupper 335 Posted July 29, 2013 This happened to me a lot in my first few weeks and then one day it just didn't happen anymore. I took Gas-X and Tylenol and found that it helped some. I'm just over nine weeks out now and it hasn't happened in a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melanie112482 3 Posted July 29, 2013 I get gas pains in my left shoulder and under my left rib cage area. Uncomfortable but not extremely painful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flup 48 Posted July 29, 2013 I first I thought it was gas, but should I still be having gas issues 8 weeks out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melanie112482 3 Posted July 29, 2013 I dunno I am only 5 days out and have that pain... Assuming its gas bc i had it in surgeries prior to this one and it was always gas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
