Sore shoulder...leak?

[ange1381 2]

Hello. I was sleeved on 9/29 and have had a relatively easy recovery. I feel great. But in the last two or three days I have noticed that my shoulders are becoming sore. Mainly when I do things, but even minor things like hold big my purse or even texting. It is mainly

My left shoulder, but my right as well. I am left handed and therefore using my left shoulder more. I am going to call my doctor when they have office hours this afternoon, but does this sound like a symptom of a leak? Or maybe just weakness?

The bariatric nurse I spoke to yesterday says that gas pains are felt in the left shoulder from redirected pain. That there isn't anything you can take for that left shoulder pain because it's not really pain. does that makes sense? Could that be it?

I hope so! And it's not even pain. Like a light soreness. I'm sure I'm overreacting. I'm a worst case scenario kind of girl lol

Severe, excruciating pain (usually chest, shoulder, abdominal), racing heart, dizziness and a high fever. Sounds like you have gas pains, have you been taking your Gas-X strips or chewables? Those things save me hehe.

I've had those same symptoms from surgery where they blow your abdomen with gas.

Shoulder pain is something else. I've had it for 2 days now.
