Well thats sounds good to me. But, anything is possible. Every ones body reacts differently. I too have been in chronic pain for over 10 years. Many operations and alot of meds. Many of the meds for chronic pain can have negative results such as weight gain. Thats what I do.The steroids are the culprit.Do you take meds, or injections for pain. You might look into combinations of meds possibly causing this.Are you where the weight loss is dangerously low and your intake of calories are not healthy? I would check with your doctor. Good luck
