Headaches and leg pains



Recommended Posts

I'm about 7 weeks out from surgery and my bloodwork has been ok but I continue to have terrible thigh pain. My thighs ache horrible. Also having headaches about every other day. Has anyone else has this! I'm so sick of hurting all the time. I want so bad to enjoy this weight loss but with all this hurting and no energy, I'm pretty frustrated!!!!

Try to increase your Water intake......Sometimes dehyration causes HA and leg pains......Also, call your surgeon's office and see what they have to say. It's really important to watch for the possibility of a blood clot.... Let us know how your doing... :)

I was going to ask if you might be dehydrated too. Also, have you had your electrolyte levels tested lately? (potassium and magnesium deficiencies can cause leg and foot cramps). Maybe try some G2 and Water, unless you are already drinking a ton, in which case that probably isn't the culprit.

      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...

        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.
