I am fighting with this ever since hiatal hernia surgery in which, apparently, my vagus nerve was damaged. The shoulder pain has just started and seems to be very much associated with times when I am having stomach discomfort or pain. I feel best when I eat nothing at all but that’s not sustainable of course. It looks as though a nearly liquid diet will be the way I need to go. I’ve had all the tests and no answers except “low motility” and managing through eating. I get hungry but don’t like the consequences of eating. I am not taking any medication related to this except omeprazole. Anyone having success with meds?
