dehydration headaches are killer. FOr me, they are usually directly in the forehead or top of my head. MAke sure you are getting your fluids in!

Low sugar/carbs can also cause it.

you know wht...it could be slight dehydration because when I try to drink I get this horrible feeling in my chest its like a fire air bubble...do any of u know why im getting that

I think you are about a week out?? Or so? The first week or so my whole throat felt pretty raw and it felt like everything was clunk clunking down until it finally hit a painful bottom.. It does get better I'm time though.

Most doctors will say to take about a half hour to eat the 1/4 cup of food.chew slow and a lot also take a minute or two between bites.

You might be drinking to fast.. You can also play with the temperatures of the water...

I think it's probably reflux. I too have been feeling that way. I think my headaches are a cross between clenching my jaw and detoxing off sugar, caffeine, carbs etc. try some baby Tylenol. But definitely try to drink some more Water.
