Hey guys. Quick ?. I am almost 6 weeks post op and my back, butt, and legs have been killing me since week 3. Does anyone know why and how to fix it? I have almost been in tears today.

If you find out let me know . The doctor have me muscle relaxers for bedtime I was spasming in my back and legs horrible. I also added sugarfree Gatorade to my protein drink it seems to help during the day.

Have your potassium levels checked

What can I do if my potassium levels are low?? I'm not able to have fruits/veggies yet..!

My lower back almost tailbone area has been causing me excrutiating pain. I called my surgeons office & they said it normal from rapid weight loss. To exercise those muscles more because they are used to be more fluffly covered by fat. & we are using areas of our body that weren't used as much before. So hope that helps a little.

Thanks. I called my surgeon today also. I was told to keep an eye on it because my legs hurt too. I see my PCP next month and will be doing bloodwork. We shall see.
