Back pain?

I had RNY gastric bypass November 26th ... So far I've lost 60 pounds (not that I'm looking to find it ever again!) and have been doing okay but not great with eating and I can't drink enough but the thing that is bothering me most is the lower back pain!! I have a sharp muscular pain in my left lower back that is excruciating; I've used more of my post op pain pills this week than I did after surgery!

Has anyone else had back pain? What helped it?

Severe pain, anywhere and anytime = call your doctor. As you lose weight your center of gravity changes and it takes some time for your muscles to adapt to the changes. Some discomfort is pretty common. But again, severe pain is always something to discuss with the Big Kahuna.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your weight loss so far! You're gonna love the new you!!
