Aches in back

[Effie Neptune 0]

Hi,

I'm new here and have some questions. Was banded in Jan, lost 60 lbs and had only one fill. Things usually go great but occasionally I will mess up with not chewing well enough and about 30 minutes after I eat my back will start aching and I know it means I'm too full. I don't vomit or spit up like I use to at the beginning and I can sip Water so I think something must just be stuck. The pain can last for hours - stomach and back pain sometimes even into the next day. I try drinking slow sips of warm water and that helps. It's definately different than before when I knew when the last bit:help:e should be or I'd spit up. What's this mean?

I am fairly new to the band, I was banded 09/07/07. I, too feel alot of backpain and have decided that I have just eaten way toooo much. I still have had no fill. My first fill will be on October 24. So, I do know what you mean by the backache.

Hey Effie,

Was just lurking on the bb's and saw your post.. I do have backpain today but thought it was just that I may have overexerted myself. However, today was my day to change to "mush" foods (i was banded 9/26) and I did have oatmeal - I did eat about a cup and 1/2. I have not had any fills yet -

Now I'm worried I screwed something up?

Has anyone had back pain explained by a medical profession? Can it be associated with the band?

I do not have any other pain at all.. just the dull ache in my lower back.
