Gas pain in shoulders



Recommended Posts

My Surg was 11/28... I expected to have gas pain last 2-4 days! It seems to be just as bad as day one & can get intense enough to stop me in my tracts, is this the norm? Also am on a blood thinner for 10days, I am experiencing shortness of breath from time to time... is this due to the blood thinner, or a symptom others experienced???

Any & all info is appreciated!!!

Hi,

I had my surgery on 11/21, I only had gas pain for the first night, but I have a high pain threshold so I haven,t had any pain, I am on blood thinner for 4 weeks and I haven't had any problems with them only the bee sting feeling after they are injected

I’m in day 3 and I don’t have gas pain in my shoulders, but it’s inside me. I feel like I’m constantly grumbling around in there ready to burp or hiccup after any sip. I need to move around more I think. Are you walking around?

Been walking a lot ..... put heating pad on my shoulders this morning, seem to relieve things ... but was all back within an hour!!!
I spoke with a nurse in the family this eve & she said the blood thinner I am taking can cause the shortness of breath!!!

Hi,

My surgery was on 11/25. I had very bad gas pain in my left shoulder for 2 days. The downward dog yoga pose helped for obvious reasons. I also did a dose of milk of mag and a fleets suppository which reliever it completely. Hope this helps.

Sleeved the same day and also have some residual pressure/pain in my left shoulder. I've been using a heating pad, icy hot, deep massage, yoga, and lifting some light weights. It's not making it go away, but it's making it more manageable.

I’m 5 days out and still have the grumbling and sometimes there is a pain right under my sternum that stops me from doing anything until I move around. I find that moving and walking helps me with all that. Sitting too long also makes me very uncomfortable.

      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.
