I did look in the topic list and didnt see anything that would come close to this topic if I did miss it I am sorry...

I just had my surgery on the 16 of oct and have been having weird pains in random places such as hip, rump, back of the upper arm. It feels as if I am pulling a small section of the muscle off the bone or tearing of the muscle. Any one else having this type of issues and have you figured out how to fix it?

How much weight have you lost? People tend to forget that fat doesn't reside only subdermally, we've got Visceral fat as well. Visceral fat protects muscles, bone, tendons, etc. So when we lose a lot of weight, we lose Visceral fat as well, this tends to cause some "slack" around the areas of greater loss, this can lead to pain due to lose joints. Working the muscles groups around problematic joints can help tighten everything up, I had some pretty noticeable issues with my hips, and I found out I've got spinal arthritis, didn't know until the fat stopped protecting the nerves, I can feel it now though!

With your rump, does it only hurt when sitting on something hard? Don't forget that you are losing a lot of "padding".

Stretching and targeted work outs can help get everything back into place.

Hmm. I have been having horrible back pain since surgery. I think it has to do with the shifting of weight or something.

I am not sure how much weight I have lost since I am only on day 6 after surgery. I am just praying that it's not the start of shingles from all the stress of the operation. But you do give me another reason and that it could be a possibility of something else. Which is a relief!!
Thanks for a possible explanation!

I had surgery this 18th and over had back pain like a pulled muscle. I sorta chalked it up to the hospital bed and positions I tend to be in.

Maybe it's actually referred pain, from the operation sites?

You know I have such much chronic body pain I can't testify to whether I have more/less pain post- surgery. Anybody like my chronic arthritis? Selling it at a price even YOU can afford! Figure I can, cause I got it for FREE!😋

Frustr8 have you ever read Stephen King’s Needful Things?

Stehan King is a strange bird, re-read the basic plot where people go to Needful Things, purchase their hearts desire and lose their souls in the process. Don't see a correlation between myself and that. Why do you ask?

It’s a long time since I read it but it was interesting as sometimes a persons hearts desire was not simple, if I recall correctly one of the main characters was a good person but she had crippling arthritis in her hands. Your comment about selling yours brought the book to mind!

Yeah I think that character was Polly. My current 💖desire is to have my stoma stricture repaired so I can move on to a Better diet with more patience. But I promise never to ask Leland Gault for anything-- I would like to retain MY SOUL!

Reading over this thread, good one Incidently, is my excruciating pain, mid back to left of spine, due to Dr Noria's atempt to manipulate and stretch my stoma to an acceptable opening and hopefully remaining open size? Thought it might be from the contortions to receive an endoscopy, But IDK, with how our nerves sense things, is it impossible or maybe acceptable? I would ask if there is anyone who has experienced this or am I out in the wilderness crying💦 all by myself?

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
