Anyone else having tightness in their legs? It's not really a muscle cramp because it doesn't come and go, it's like a constant feeling of tension. It's mostly in my calves. As of yesterday I have a "stitch" in my side too. I'm two weeks post op.

You may be dehydrated or lacking in vitamins and minerals such as potassium. That can cause muscle cramps.

Thanks, that's what I thought too, but they took blood work and all my electrolytes including potassium and magnesium were within normal range. I've been taking my Vitamins every day, and also getting in all my Protein and fluids.

Just thought I would update. The day afterI posted I went to the ER because the pain in my left leg was getting worse. A previous ultrasound I had the week before was negative, but this time it was positive. They found a blood clot behind my left knee, and a CT scan showed 3 clots in my lungs. Fortunately the clots in my lungs were small and didn't cause any breathing issues. I just got home from the hospital yesterday. I'm feeling great now and finally having some energy. Now on to conquering the weight loss!

Yikes! Glad you took it seriously and were checked out. Hope you get feeling better soon!

Good thing you went back and they caught it.
