I have been on the preOp diet for less than a week, but the last two days have been nothing but headaches!! Anything I can do? Any advice? Thank you so much.

Sorry, it sucks but yes headaches on the pre op are common. Since its usually such a drastic change from what you had been eating your body is just trying to adjust and may be experiencing withdraw from caffeine, sugar and carbs. I had a five day migraine with my pre op diet. I don't know what your specific diet consists of but maybe try a cup of black coffee or some oj. I have heard other people say that helped them. Good luck.

same as jersey

i ended up taking reg tylenol pills to help with my headaches...def sounds as if you are detoxing..good news, it gets better...

Thanks. I'm glad it gets better. I guess that a detoxing was the case. Kinda makes me think if my body reacts like this with out certain foods how is it going to react through the whole process? Hey but at least I'm breaking the cycle right? Anyways thanks guys I know someone had to have gone through it.

Yes I had stonkng headaches. I was told I could take paracetamol, which really helped. Headaches are really common because apparently it's your body getting used to less food and the toxins etc coming out.

I found that 3-4 days in the headaches disappeared.
