Have a friend do rapid karate chops on your neck and shoulder a few times a day. And walk walk walk.

I'm in the same boat.

Left shoulder, neck and side are killing me. Like a sharp pain when you move a certain way.

I have a heating pad which seems to help and moving around every little while.

I'm 1 day post op.

Walking helps to get that out, also try the karate chops and get some gas x strips. Good luck

Hi there, mine hit around day four or five just when I thought I hd escaped the dreaded left shoulder pain. Windmill arms helped me but also the walking, walking walking. This was also about the time I had to address Constipation. I didn't take pain medication but still had this issue from anesthesia. The good news is it won't be lomg before this I is all a distant memory. Way to go choosing your healthy future! It's a very exciting time.

      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.
