Does Anyone Experience A Great Deal Of Pain If They Walk Too Much?

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Portland, OR

I feel as if someone is stabbing me to death in my pelvic area with each step I take. I have been experiencing this for over a year and it's awful, I have to limit my walking distance even in my own home and sit down often.

I thought I was going crazy! The lower back and pelvic pain KILLS me! I can't walk for more than 5 minutes or stand for very long. Everyone - family, friends, doctors - all tell me it's cause I'm so overweight. Sitting here crying cause just to know I'm not crazy is the best thing in the world.

Yes I've always been told it was my weight so I had gastric sleeve surgery and lost 200lbs and still have the same issues.

Yes my back hurts at the right hand side then spreads to the centre then left. That's if I'm walking over a long period of time. I need to stop to take breaks.
