Bmordan 16 Posted April 25, 2013 I went back to work Tuesday and also went to the gym for the 1st time since surgery. Now my back and left side are killing me! I was told by the surgeon I can not take anything with aspirin for the rest of my life. Has this happened to anyone? If so what did you take to relieve the pain?

MrsG 329 Posted April 26, 2013 I take ibuprofen and I always make sure it's with food. It's ok with my dr, I would ask yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
