Muscle Issue Question
I'm almost six years out of rny. Doing great. Living life at goal and loving it.
But I'm having muscle issues. Yesterday I worked out in the yard for two hours. And this morning I couldn't hardly walk or use my arms. The muscles in my thighs and upper arms just burn (like after a huge work out) except I didn't do much. I raked some but didn't over do it. I'm exhausted today and have been in bed all day. I got up at noon and took a shower, but afterwards I was too tired to even sit in a chair I had to go lay down.
I am not taking vitamins right now.
I do get 80 -100 grams of protein per day... all from foods, chicken, tuna, tuna, tuna (love tuna). lol
I get at least 100 oz of water /ice tea per day
Other then that I don't really count carbs etc... anymore. I'm careful with them as my stomach doesnt tolerate much of them(the stomach still rules)
I can not drink milk at all... not even in Kashi cereal... I dump majorily every time...
any ideas????

The answer to this is in your statement..I am not taking vitamins...HELLO you had RNY remember? you body does not use everything you take in..you are suppose to being taking vitamins and mineral supplements. Im n ot a doctor but I can tell you this.. If I dont take my vits and such I have major muscle faitgue plus cramping..
being healthy has its rewards....take the challenge and just do it
My best guess is that you are deficient in some of the minerals you should be getting in your vitamins. Off the top of my head it sounds liks a B-12 issue to me-- but I am NOT a doctor! I only see doctors. You need to get in to see your doctor and get some lab work drawn.
It is possible this could be unrelated to your WLS and be something totally unrelated. At any rate, go see your doctor. And, get back on your vitamins!
