7 days Post OP



Recommended Posts

I am 7 days post OP I had a hernia repaired and the sleeve done and I'm having issues with left shoulder pain which seems to be worst when I sip my liquids.

I also have a ,what feels like a gas bubble in my chest when I sip.

My doctor said he may need to scope me if it does not go away by tomorrow

SCOPE !?!?! I'm already in pain !

I've been told you have shoulder pain after abdominal surgery due to then putting air to fill your stomach up. I've had multiple abdominal surgeries and have encountered this pain. I,however, have not had the sleeve yet. Best wishes & I hope you feel better soon!

Yes, agreed that the shoulder pain in air (gas) that was pumped during the surgery. Passing gas and time will relieve it! I am 4 days post op so I am with y’all in solidarity! :) Hope everyone feels better asap!

Left shoulder pain is from the hernia repair. My surgeon warned me about this several times. I have not had an issue with it. I do still have gas pains and just hoping it will work itself out soon.
