Had my 4th fill today (im 6 mths out) felt fine when i left the dr office but i started having a bad headache. Could it b the starting of a cold r could it b an overfill? Thanks

I've not heard of a headache being a sign of being overfilled. Can you drink Water easily?

What would you have attributed the headache to before you got the band? It's an easy trap to fall into, thinking that every ache or pain is related to the band, but in most cases, it will be something completely separate.

Hope your headache improves quickly.

Well, usually i get a headache when im hungry and all i had this am was clear liquids. Headache started after fill. Could be coming down w/ head cold. Got some broth in. drinkin water is fine.

If you can drink and eat just fine I would say its possible that an over fill is not the issue. It could very well be seasonal/allergies or a cold of some sort, maybe even stress.

Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks. Hope its jus stress also. Glad its not frm havin an overfill. He had a time locatin my port. Tummy is sore. Hope good night sleep helps, got a 4 hr drive home

Listen I am 3 yrs post op from surgery, went 2 yrs without a fill due to no job-no insurance. I can't wait till October for my benefits to kick in & then I will be getting my fills again I hope. I've maintained my weight for those 2 yrs; haven't reached my ideal weight hopefully I will reach it by December

I used to get headache As well. I wasn't getting enough protein. Try protein shots. Find them at health food stores or online. They may help or drink more protein.
