Body stiffness and aches



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved Aug. 15, 2012 and for close to 3 months my whole body aches and my muscles get stiff. I didn't have this problem before surgery. I asked the nurse that I've been working with at the surgery center and she hasn't heard of this happening before. Anyone else have this problem?

I would run that by your surgeon and primary doctor. It could be your body adjusting to new metabolism and food intake' date=' but best to check it out thoroughly.[/quote']

Thanks.

Yeah, if anything I had *less* aches and pains after surgery. Having *more* just seems... off.

I've kind of had the same issue. I feel like I have the achy body from the flu. It's become progressively worse since surgery. Doctor is stumped...

Have you had your bloods done recently? Maybe some deficiency?

I just found some info on muscle and joint pain/soreness. These symptoms are from Protein deficiency. I've always wondered if I was getting enough Protein. Guess ill try increasing it. Hope this helps you.

Through some research I think I have symptoms of Protein deficiency. Thanks for the question.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
