Fordgal88 7 Posted August 25, 2008 Hey guys-I just had my band put in Thursday. Is it normal for my shoulders to hurt? It feels like a pinched nerve. Yes, its normal. Sometimes the gas gets trapped up there, it should ease up some in the next week. Also you might want to try some gas-x strips. My shoulders hurt now when I start to get full. I have read that its one of those nerve things from the band being close to my diaphram. I hope everything else is going well!! =) Shawna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
