Hips hurting



Recommended Posts

I, along with my PCP, decided that I would go off all my mediciations after surgery.....well, that was almost 9 days ago and so far so good except for the Celebrex for my arthrtis in my hips. My hips are killing me....anyone with a band and taking Celebrex?

Has anyone tried Glucosamine chondroitin for their arthritis? Can I take this with the band?

A lady at our support group asked that very question, if Glucosamine could be taken with the band and my surgeon replied "knock yourself out".

Sorry about the hip pain. I get bad hip pain too (esp if I work out too hard) so I can only imagine what you are going through.

There is a liquid Vitamin at the Vitamin Shoppe that has Glucosamine chondroitin in it. Maybe that would be a good way to help with your hip pain and get your Vitamins all at the same time. They also have liquid glucosamine both are in this search:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

      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 ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜ญ. 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! ๐Ÿ˜ž
