Had my gastric bypass on 9th. I am so very sore hurts to move…anyone know how long this will last? My soreness is better but any bending at waist sends my lower back on left side into spasms that take my Breath away..any ideas from my fellow bypasses

I had this , I think it’s cause we lose muscle too fast in that area, it took about 4 weeks to come right and a trip to chiropractor. Good luck

I had some Gatorade zero to balance electrolytes and or banana, and some small amount of magnesium, like milk of magnesia, and a calcium chew or milk. I used to be a serious runner and it alleviated cramps like Charlie horses. I have 2 prunes and a calcium chew when I’ve overdone exercise. Basically you are restoring potassium and calcium. The magnesium relaxes muscle (and most of us need a little boost in the other uses). It should take about an hour to half a day to feel the effects.
