So I am about 11 days post-op and I had a bad case of nausea that seemed to go away thank god. But now I have developed this nagging Right shoulder pain...I am getting a little worried, and thinking it could be my GallBladder...I wonder if anyone else has experienced this discomfort? I noticed that the Left shoulder seemed to be the culprit, but of course eveything is the opposite for me!

Three letter word, starts with a G. Yeah, gas. Dang gas pains can be killer. And it moves around sometimes, too. I recommend Gas-X strips, a heating pad applied to wherever the pain is at the moment, and WALK. Walk as much you are comfortable with. Do it throughout the day. Sometimes, when you're sitting, hold your arms over your head and move them around, too. If you've never had trapped gas, it is a startling experience and seems like it must be some terrible ailment, not "just" gas. But give it a try and let us know that you are doing better!

I have lived with this long before the sugery. This is so painful, but it is gas. I found a little massage to the area sometimes help. The only real cure...passing gas, yes a good old FART!

Feel better soon.
