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.

      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.
