I have been having uncomfortable Back Spasms quite frequently. I have to take Aleeve to get rid of the pain. Any Ideas what is causing them? I also have to urinate a lot more through out the night when I sleep. I get up at least 4 times a night. Very hard to get a good night sleep. Sent from my SM-G975U using BariatricPal mobile app

Yesterday...I ate a Kabob with beef. It was so good that I went to my old habits and 1 bite and swallow technique. Man, did I pay for that, the beef got stuck and drinking water only made it worst. I was at a party and walked away fast to a corner where no one could see me and barely made it before it all came up. I stayed there for a few mins while I could barely breathe and my eyes teared up. I kept vomiting for at least 10 mins. The pain kept coming back. I left the party with my wife and pulled over a few times on the way home to vomit again and relieve some of the pain and pressure in my stomach. I know I'm not suppose to eat fast and chew chew chew to small portions but sometimes I forget and repeat my bad habits that I've done for 44 years of my life. I finally made it home and hust laid on my stomach for about 1 hour before I finally felt better again. Started out with small sips of water before I continued tosoft foods later on that night. I am Post Op 6 months now Bariatric Sleeve surgery. Surgery Date was Jan3,2019 in Orange,Calif at St Josephs by Dr Pham. Heaviest was 340, surgery date was 332. As of today , I am 248, for a loss of 84 lbs 6 months out. I wore pants at a size 46-48 pre op but now I wear pants at 38 which I haven't been abke to squeeze in since high school...LOL. Shirts were a 5x but now at 2x. Dr. Pham is the same age as me and is one of the best bariatric surgeons out there. His team is phenomenal and really help you pre and post op, Especially Elena. She works in the office and is highly educated in the whole process and will help guide you from beginning to end and there after.

The hospital made me walk hours after surgery. I was sent home from hospital the next day. I was able to walk immediately after I got home. Good Luck on the surgery and your journey!!
