After all the surgeries I've had my back has been horrible too. Heating pad and muscle rubs help a lot. Also walking helps me.

My back is horrible I am in physical therapy. The therapist says I may have arthritis in my back. It only started since my surgery. You would think taking off 95+ pounds would make my back better not much worse.

Does anyone think this is related to the surgery on the front? Or just a coincidence?

After i had my surgery one of the assistants in one of my docs office said physical therapy is needed after stomach surgery sometimes to help rebuild your core. I was told it can cause weakness that your back tries to compensate for. My back was a mess before surgery. 100+lbs down and I'm still in constant chronic pain in my back, hips, hell, everywhere. This was one of few things to NOT change for me unfortunately. Hoping that once i get into a normal bmi range things will get better. Maybe another 15 to 20lbs or so. Fingers crossed[emoji26]

I had the sleeve so i can get my 2nd spine surgery next. Neuro needed me to loose weight first but was relieved to learn the air they pump in stomach during sleeve can cause bad back pain many get this with the band also. My Back was bad first week after my sleeve better noe.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
