Pain in my collar bone after eating?



Recommended Posts

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?

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.

I get gas pains in my left shoulder and under my left rib cage area. Uncomfortable but not extremely painful.

I first I thought it was gas, but should I still be having gas issues 8 weeks out?

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.

Try eating smaller bites and chewing more. Avoiding swallowing air.

      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.
