Epidural and weight gain

Hi there. Thank you for your post. got my frist epidural for back pain 3 weeks ago, and everyone said that I wouldn't gain weight, but I have gained 5 pounds and have been doing my Weight Watchers, and walking everyday. The good news is that I am no longer in pain, but has anybody else had an epidural and had this problem..and how long does it take to lose itl I am 55. Thanks everyone.

Welcome to 3FC! :welcome2: I'm so glad the epidural injections have given you some relief. :carrot:

I'm 54 and have had five myself (they're the only thing between me and back surgery) and I haven't experienced any weight gain with any of them. Hopefully your five pounds is temporary and will come back off soon!

We have an active WW forum and an age 50+forum that you might want to check out. We're glad you found us! :)
