Has anyone ever had bad back pain after surgery?

Has anyone ever had bad back pain after surgery?

It gets worst the more active you are...i had my one week follow up yesterday and mentioned it to my dr. She took a look at the area where i was complaining about and said it was musculer pain. Ive been able to get around really well since surgery 8/7 and she said that i may be doing a lil too much too soon. Every since i started having the back pain ive been very lucky and every night since i got home from hospital ive been getting a two hour massage from the hubby which really helps a lot. One night i didnt get one and i couldnt sleep the whole night because i was in pain. :-\ good thing he felt bad for me lol cause its not like him to give many massages...

Back pain was the worst pain for me when I had my surgery. When I woke up in recovery, my back was killing me, and it stayed like that for 3 or 4 days. I am 15 days post op and still have some days when my back hurts.

I agree that the back pain has been the worst pain

      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.
