Hi all, I'm 5 days post op. All is going well, except I've got a constant headache. Since I'm on blood thinners post surgery I don't want to take any aspirin products if I can avoid it. Any advice or information on why the headache is present in the first place?

I would suggest dehydration, try drinking more?

Lots of water. Your not eating like you did before, your bound to have a headache. No sugar or chemical. Drink as much fluid as you can and make sure you aren't taking aspirin(Tylenol only) I don't know what I'm gonna, do when I can't take ibuprofen any more. I take 800mg 2 x day now. Once the sleeve goes in

are you on antinausa meds like zofran? they can cause a headache too, plus what the 2 previous posters mention above. hydrate. hope you feel better soon.
