I have 5 days until surgery & about 6 days in on my pre op diet my joints started killing me! I mean I cant even sleep? My hips, lower back & knees. Whyyyy??? Did anyone else have this problem?? Google isn't giving much insight.

Maybe that's what's going on with me too! I have had horrible back pain!

Have you looked up any causes online? Because I sure cant find any!

I have asked these same questions. only to be told that my 100 ounces of water intake with complete vitamin regimn was not enough. I began hurting within the first week of preop. All the pain was in my joints and my lower back. Extremely tired and constipated also. Im still waiting on a reasonable answer or some resolution.

They let you take vitamins! My doctor wouldn't even allow tylenol for the pain

Yes. But it hasnt helped. Keep us posted in your journey.

No, I haven't! Just dealt with it. I'm allergic to NSAIDS anyway, so no issues not taking them after surgery.
