Is there any one who has fibromyalgia and had the surgery, how are your symptoms now?

I have fibromyalgia also. I'm scheduled for surgery in October. I've been told that losing the weight helps drastically with fibro. So I'm crossing fingers it helps.

I have fibromyalgia as well and am waiting on insurance approval. My dr has told me getting the weight off and therefore exercising more will help with pain but it will never go away. My mom had a gastric bypass and has fibromyalgia and she is only 105 lbs and pain still there.

I have fibromyalgia as well my surgery won't be until December, I don't think surgery will stop the pain because it's nerve pain.

I have CFS/ME & Fibro. Diagnosed 2 years ago. Each of my doctors informed me this procedure would no cure it, only to help alleviate because I'd have less weight on the muscles

Thanks everyone I figured the symptoms would not go away totally but hoping less pain and maybe less medication.

      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.
