I am 7 months out and down almost 100 pounds and for the last 2 months I have been having severe back pain.  I will be totally fine one minute and the next it is horrible pain throughout my whole back, but more in my upper part of my back.  Right now it is hurting.  There is nothing I can do to relieve the pain.  I have went to the ER twice about it and they did a EKG twice and they did a cat scan and they said they didn't find anything...so I just left with bigger tears than I had before I got there.  I was just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this problem.  Could it be lack of nutrition? Is my stomach pulling on my back?  I just want the pain to stop.  I hope someone can shed some light on this problem and can help me.  Thanks

I experience upper back discomfort.  Someone on one of the board suggested pancreatitis (spelling?).  I also wonder if it is because my boobs are still DD even though I have lost 85 pounds.  Or maybe its a combination of both.

I have been dealing with SEVERE back pain since surgery ( 05152006) , got my gall Bladder out, then got diagnosed with an ulcer had that operated on 01092007 they came back with a vengence mind you 2 months later..............still have horrible back pain.  Maybe just maybe you have an ulcer.  Have you been scoped? and yes pancreatitis could also be an option I had that before and that was killer dead center back pain.  Does it hurt to eat? do you throw up ? my symptoms were and still are dead center buring throbbing back pain, nausea, increased weight loss from the throwing up.  It hurts me the most when I try to eat or drink.  Keep us posted good luck Michele

I haven't been throwing up at all.  It is just horrible pain...I am probably going to go see my surgeon.  I think that is probably the only person that might understand what I am going through and who can help me....pretty much i am just hoping for a miracle!!!!
