nmuro313 18 Posted July 24, 2017 I'm having more discomfort today in my left shoulder, mostly in my upper trap. It is kind of just consistently nagging, not worsening at any specific time. I have no nausea or vomitting. I've been getting plenty of fluids in daily. I called my doctor, I'm just waiting for a return call, but with it being almost 5pm, I might have to wait until tomorrow. Anyone else have this? What is it and how do i get it to go away?Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bits 22 Posted July 25, 2017 Do you have a lap band? Oh I just looked at your previous posts(you're sleeved). It might just be gas. Try walking and see if you feel better. If the pain persists, call up your surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted July 25, 2017 Gas tends to make it's way up that left shoulder and kinda ache. Just keep on walking, and it should dissipate over the next few days. Of course everyone gets nervous about shoulder pain (heart attack symptom and all), so if you start feeling BAD, of course, seek further treatment. Monitor for fever and any other off-color symptoms.

JupiterSky 23 Posted July 27, 2017 Holy Crap did i have left shoulder pain. It was the worst pain i ever felt. It lasted about 3 days post op. Sitting up straight and moving around helps. It was worse when i laid down. Putting heating pad on it helps and of course drugs....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
