finally on task with two week prior surgery and my head is killing me. Can't remember what is ok to take. I know motrin and ibuprofen are out but what is ok to take? Anyone know?

I was told that Tylenol was ok. If you don't want to go the medicine route, try lying down for a bit with a lavender scented washcloth. That is real soothing.

That is a great idea, i will try that! Thank you!

My mom had mini gastric bypass and was told to eat a little salt for headaches. It works well for her.

Why can't one wean off of caffeine? It has nothing to do with liver shrinkage

Try a cold compress, freeze a few dampened washclothes and hold them on your head and neck. Those head aches are the worst.

I woke up this morning and was surprised it was gone already! If it comes back though, you can bet i'll try all of these!! Thank you so much for the ideas! Oh and i was supposed to ween off of it weeks ago but i can only seem to do all or nothing. My own fault, but if anyone reads this.....i highly suggest the weening off!
