Congrads Miss Undastood on your journey so far, nice to know you made it back safe:thumbup:. The Dr. Did explain that you will have gas and walking is the only thing you can do to get rid of it:unsure:, or take something for it. your shoulder pains are coming from when they filled your stomach with gas, it's your diaphragm.:tt2:

Hello Miss Undastood,

I was banded in Atlanta on 10-03-08 (my new birthday). I am sufferring with the referred pain in my left shoulder. I have been walking and trying to move the gas. I hope we both feel better soon. We are on our way to a new life. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
