Headaches after Bypass Surgery

[cheryl o 60]

Hi Everyone - I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone have headaches after the bypass. I have these headaches that last for 3 days at a time and not sure if it is due to the amount of food we are supposed to eat or the Water we are supposed to drink. What can you take besides tylenol because that doesn't always help.
Thanks,
Lisa

my dr said when i get headaches and feel dizzy, its time to adjust the meds im on. Im only taking Lisinorpil, and on my 1st follow up today, my blood pressure was "normal" and he warned me to contact my primary when i feel this way.

I got a bad headache around my sinus. It was caffeine withdrawal. I had some coffee and it went away.

Regular Water is really acidic. If it's bothering your stomach, try switching to alkaline Water. You can find it in the stores. Smart water makes it, its in the black bottle. There are other companies as well. It is more expensive than Regular water but it is let acidic and will not hurt your stomach. You can sometimes find it in the gallon jugs as well. If this is an ongoing issue with your stomach and water, you can find pH drops on Amazon and add them to your regular water and do it that way. It's a lot cheaper in the long run.

Water is not acidic at all: Pure water has a pH of 7 and is considered “neutral” because it has neither acidic nor basic qualities.

Alkaline water is a marketing scam. Your body is EXTREMELY good at maintaining homeostasis, and if you have an acid/base issue, you would almost certainly be in the hospital.

Nope.

I was suffering from headaches as well. My nurse told me to switch out the oxymorons for Tylenol. It worked!
