Done Back Surgery. Now Have Pain, Weight Loss, Nausea When Eating. Have Painkillers Affected Stomach Lining?
Hi I have had back surgery after years of being on strong pain killers. Though I had relief for about 6 months I am now having pain like before and can not stop losing weight. Food just goes through me and my stomach is often feeling nausea when I eat. Have the pain killers effected my stomach lining. How can I fix this without taking more prescription drugs.

welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Need to know more about your spine problem. Do you have back pain or leg pain or both? You are right, the medicine will not solve the problem and it will only complicate the things due to side effects. What was the surgery done? You need to see your spine doctor and get Xrays if needed. Please get back with more detailed information.Thanks.
