I woke up today (day 3) with a headache. I took 1 tablespoon of adult liquid Tylenol and slowly sipped about 4 oz of water. I feel quite a bit better.

Story of my life! I was sleeved 11/26 as well. I find that water and/or protein helps. I haven't been able to figure out what it's from though.

Me too, I think I am not drinking enough since headaches are a sign of dehydration. Just need to keep sipping i suppose

It is probably mild dehydration. Make sure you are sipping water all day long. I found that smart water and vitamin water zero really helped. I found warm/room temperature helped too.

Also keep track of your thyroid. I was getting migains at 6 months out and found that my thyroid meds were too high.

Don't be afraid to take some liquid Tylenol or fast melts. Your body is healing.

Good Luck

I knew I wasn't getting enough water... Dunno why I didn't associate that with my headaches

For me, it seems like headaches are due to my new food intake, I now eat very little carbs (3 1/2 weeks post-op). Caffeine helps, as long as you are not dehydrated. Also sugar helps me, have had some Coke (after shaking it to make it flat) that helps me tremendously. I am hoping that as my body adjusts to my new eating habits the headaches will subside.

Best of luck!
