    Default Back pain relief after sleeve anyone?

    I'm considering having surgery for several reasons but one main reason is that I'm hoping losing the 85 lbs i need to will relieve my chronic back pain. Would love to hear from anyone who has had back pain relief from losing weight from this surgery. I've lost 15 lbs recently by cutting carbs but still have pain. Wondering how much i have to lose before i feel relief. I have a pain management dr and get steroid injections for the pain. I'm 33 years old and don't want to live in pain. I'm also hoping to get pregnant after surgery so if anyone has experienced improved fertility post surgery, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

    I have been a chronic pain patient for decades with the back being a major culprit. I will have my surgery 10/19 & am quite sure the loss of weight will only help my pain issues. I have been on major narcotics for decades as nothing else has worked. So I am hopeful that I will lose enough to allow me to exercise and live a better quality of life. You hang in there, Sadie.....

    Thank you! I commend you on your decision to have the surgery. I will pray that this surgery relieves your pain because I know your quality of life just isn't what it should be when you're in that much pain. Take care and I can't wait to hear how everything goes with you! Have a great week! ��

    Considering the fact, that it has passed pretty much time, can you write a feedback for the surgery. How was the recovery period? My doctor said that it is one of the most challenging parts, so I'm afraid, I won't deal with it. My back pain is linked to the overweight, and I really hope the surgery will help in this direction too. A while ago, I gave up on Ibuprofen or other painkillers on kratom's favour. My friend recommended me a page where you can find kratom extract for sale. It works pretty well for me, because besides pain relief, it reduces anxiety, and this is what I need before the surgery.

    I did not have anything like that but after four months I still have nausea sometimes, and it worries me, I follow all the nutrition rules

    Yes, it's not common to everyone, but it can be found easily in peoples practice. Back pain is something that should not be ignored, like for real. Healthy back means also that organs are at their places, blood flow is freely passing to brain(head). Nerves and disks are not damages. After years only thankfulness of standing up from bed without "Ahhh, ahhh it hurts" situations. Even more, while young for sure this exercises from physical therapy related site will do also excellent results. Many now work in office and have posture problems, back problems. I think a lot of people are ignoring such problems, and it’s really worthy to take care about our health.
