    It is a common side effect of your body switching from an ATP-based energy burn to a keytone-based one, which is what is supposed to happen when you are on your pre-op diet and your body is starved of sugars. It sucks but it's not forever. After surgery you'll go back to an ATP-based metabolism when you start eating a more normal diet again and it shouldn't be a problem.
