Has anyone had any muscle pain? I'm two months out. I first noticed a shin splint type pain out of nowhere. Hurts when I go to stand up. After a few steps I'm fine. Been a couple weeks now. Then, tonight out of nowhere, it feels like I have a pulled muscle on my inner thigh. I haven't done anything out of the ordinary. My thigh was fine an hour ago. Wierd. I'm gonna be sure to increase my H2o, and potassium . Just wondering if any of you know anything about it. Thanks, mendy

I haven't heard of anything like that. I would try the potassium too and more water. Try a heating pad if you have one. Good luck.

Several women in a different VSG group who are 5 months out are having leg cramps from lack of potassium per their docs. Because its traveling, I would read the criteria for blood clots/DVT just to be safe. The sensations are different.

Can I know what group? I am almost 5 months out and having upper thigh pain that keeps me awake at night and makes me uncomfortable when sitting, standing seems to be the only way I am comfortable. Plan to go to the doctor after Christmas, was hoping to wait until my Jan. 3rd check up but feel like I can't wait it hurts too much
