Back & Shoulder Pain



Recommended Posts

Beginning my fourth week post OP. I woke up this AM to begin my day, went to eat Breakfast and got this horrible pain between my shoulders. :lol: It lasted for about 5 minutes then eased up. Was able to eat breakfast just fine then went to work and every once in a while the pain hits and then it goes away. However, I just want to cry it hurts so badly, and then it leaves as fast as it came. Has any one experience this? Should I be concerned?

Thanks for you input.

Howdy,

I thought I was a total weirdo... I am having the same pain that you describe. my pain feels just like post op gas pain but at this point i should not still be having it. Called my support person today and she said it does sound like trapped gas. Maybe yours just moves a lot qiucker than mine (which will last hours sometimes. ) She said it could last for several weeks... I hope not it really hurts.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
