Last night I start to get pains all over my body. It's hard to describe, its like muscle spasms all over. I can't sit up or ill feel like my muscles are being pulled In opposite directions. I sat completely up and was nauseous so I laid back down. I'm so weak I keep moving from side to side, I went to sleep for like 30 min got up to throbbing In my arms and legs and I'm freezing. The heat is on 85 and I'm just hurting. I'm 10 days out has anyone else had this feeling.

I'm sorry you feel bad! Have you taken your temperature? It sounds like you may be running a fever.

Have you been getting enough liquids? Maybe your dehydrated. I haven't had surgery yet but when start to get dehydrated I get muscle pains.

Did they give you anumber to call if youhave any problems? I would call them or call the nurses line at your local hospital and see if you should go to the ER.

You are probably dehydrated and when you sit up it will cause nausea and cold. I litterly was shaking when I got dehydrated. Two IV bags later and I was good as new...:)

Whatever it is - drinking Water won't do it any harm and will likely do you good. Sounds like dehydration to me too. The first couple of months post op... the mantra needs to be sip sip sip but don't be afraid of asking for an IV of Fluid either.

It gets easier though so hang in there!

I hope you are feelng better very soon.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
