It's probably surgery-related, but it's always best to ask your doc about new pain (especially pain that mimics heart trouble).

I've seen many members report gas or other similar pain in their shoulders many weeks after all types of endoscopic surgery. As @Berry78suggested, contact your surgeon or another medical pro asap just to make sure everything is OK.

I just had that with my lap band when I eat too much.

It's a similar pain but generally, that pain is pressure on the vagus nerve caused by the Lap-Band.
