Banded In October And Feeling A Lot O Pain In My Joints



Recommended Posts

So I was banded October 17th and I have lost 60lbs. since, this includes the 20 something lbs I lost during my pre diet. Since my surgery my hip and knees have been killing me much more then they ever did when I was heavier. It doesn't seem like it getting better and almost gets worst daily. I'm only 35 and I'm walking like I'm 20 years older, any thoughts of why this is happening.

Are you doing major exercise? If so, are you stretching before and cooling down after? I notice when in weight loss mode, I go full throttle with exercise and barely walk for days at a time. I over do it after years of not exercising.

What about Vitamins too? Maybe you are lacking vitamins you used to consume?

I would suggest you go talk to your doctor about it. If it is bad enough to impact your everyday life and doesn't improve with rest, it's serious enough to go to the doctor. You may even want to see a rheumatologist if your primary doc thinks it's appropriate. I hope you find an answer soon, I know how debilitating hip pain can be.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
