Post op hip pain

[Brenda patrick 0]

Hi everyone.

I had the sleeve performed on the 27th of April,2017. I have not had much pain except my back before surgery,due to being born with too many vertebraes. I had a laminectomy/ decompression surgery on June 1,2015.but not too much relief of the peripheral neuropathy in my legs and feet.

Everybody was saying,once you lose some weight,the pain may let up. I was only 211 at surgery time. I had the surgery to avoid becoming diabetic,to lessen my sleep apnea,and decrease my bad cholesterol numbers,

I have to be honest,i haven't been taking those horse pills of Calcium as I should,,nor the Protein Drinks. Cause I can't stand the taste of the Protein Shakes.

1 week ago to this post,i developed SEVERE pain in both of my hips; pain so bad that I missed work for 5 days ,aug 31,sept 1,the weekend of the 2 and 3rd.and the labor day holiday.

Now I am suppose to head back to work on the 5th, and my hips are hurting so bad ,i can not sleep.

I know this is very detailed,but, I would like to know if anyone else is experiencing this traumatizing hip pain.

Is it because I have not been taking the calcium and Protein supplements?

Have I caused this to myself?

Is it too late to correct this?

I just can't tell my doctor that I haven't been taking these supplements,

I would love to hear your thoughts.I will gladly answer anything you ask.

Thank you
