Hi all, a quick question for you...

I had surgery on the 23rd of August and ever since then my thighs burn and hurt like heck.

I am getting about 45 to 50 ounces of Water but my thighs burn and they cramp up at night really bad, wakes me and I have to put on the heating pad. anyone else have this issue? if so HOW DO YOU MAKE IT GO AWAY????

Hi Roxy - you need to get this checked by a medical professional, you may have developed clotting of some sort from the operation or recovery period - there is nothing I have read in the last 12 months, that would indicate this is related to gastric band surgery......... good luck, karen

i have never heard of this problem with the lapband. sounds like fluid retention. but that would show up in the whole leg and feet i would think. sounds strange. do you think it is a allergic reaction to medication? did you call your doctor. you may need to have a d-dimer test to check for dvt. DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS. i hope it turns out to be nothing. but sounds like maybe a clot. let us know......... hope you feel better.

OMG,Roxy, i know that feeling in your thighs,, i experienced it about one year ago when i lost about twenty kilos, unfortunately ive put that weight since back on and no longer experience the pain in my thighs,,,i dont know what causes it, maybe its just a reaction from our thighs cause they are loosing weight! its worth asking a doctor though, once i start losing the weight again and re experience it i will definetely seek medical advice,,,ill be interested to know what is causing ur pain though.......please let me know!

Please check this out!

Yes, get this checked...don't wait!! Better safe than sorry.

Oh...and start upping that Water Most likely unrelated to your thighs, but related to weightloss for sure
