gastric sleeve and back spasm



Recommended Posts

I am still having back and abdominal pain after having lap band to gastric sleeve surgery. I have been getting what could be called a spasm pain especially when i sit down. I had 2
cortisone shots and take ibuprofen, but still have pain, has anyone on this forum ever heard of this?

Please check with your surgeon as soon as you can. People with gastric sleeve surgery usually are not supposed to take NSAIDs, including ibuprofen. We can take Tylenol.

      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! 😞
