Question:
what's going on ? sore shoulders and wrists

Hello losers!! (LOL) I am 10 months out and down 100 lbs, 6 lbs to goal. I feel great, so much more energy, PROBLEM. My shoulders and wrists feel very stiff and it hurts to rotate them. I also feel stiff in my back and around the back of my neck as well. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Could I be lacking a vitamin or mineral? Labs done 4 months ago and things were good. Thanks in advance~    — Maggie M. (posted on March 18, 2004)

I understand that if you are lacking vitamins you can get up one morning and not be able to move I would call your doctor right away and get some lab work

When they do labs for wls, typically only the iron, b-12, ferritin level is done. Labs would indicate some type of inflammation or other problems would have to be ordered by your doc. I would talk to your DR and perhaps have the appropriate labs done for this. Good Luck!

Just an off-the-wall thought, but are you DOING anything that uses your shoulders/wrists more? Typing or gardening, etc.
