Green1 16 Posted June 6, 2016 I'm getting a slight pain in my left shoulder. Apparently when I drink something that is carbonated I feel it. It may not be a big deal for me but has anyone had this kind of problem? Also if anyone has followed my posts I still have the intense cramping. It feels like soreness and I'm very confused with this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted June 6, 2016 It's most likely gas pains from the carbonation. Are you allowed carbonated drinks with lapband? If you have cramping still - you need to have the band and port checked. Call your surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
musiee281 0 Posted June 6, 2016 I don't think you should be drinking carbonated liquids. This will surely give you gas where you don't need it! How long has it been since surgery? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
