buddy567 5 Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) I had my 5th fill on Monday and I think I might be in the Green Zone or getting REALLY close. Last night I had terrible shoulder pain and during the night had to burp. This was very unpleasant as I could feel the air getting "caught" on my band. I lived through it with a little gasX but still have a little shoulder pain today. I am assuming this is due to my fill and restriction. Anyone else experience this? Very excited to be close the Green Zone - ready to "get on with it"!!! Edited May 8, 2014 by buddy567 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2muchfun 8,927 Posted May 8, 2014 Pain shouldn't be a part of the green zone. Hopefully this is just a reaction to the fill on Monday and passes soon? Just curious, what makes you believe you're in the green zone? Satiety? Tightness? Inability to eat some foods or liquids? I just ask because some folks mistake a super tight band with the green zone and that's just not the case. 2 ABLOND and enjoythetime reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buddy567 5 Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) Pain in shoulder was temporary - really think it was gas. I was very burpy before the band so that hasn't changed. However the area where the burp passes through is much different. I think I will be taking a lot of GasX. I did not have any shoulder pain after this surgery but have had it with other surgeries in the past so I feel sure that was the case. I think I am in the green zone because of Satiety. In addition, I am really not hungry at all The feeling is kind of like the week after my surgery.
