Does anyone notice if they are getting more headaches since their surgery? I don't know if its my body going through withdrawl...from not having so much fat/calories/carbohydrates....Or if I am just not sleeping enough....or what the hell is going on...But it seems like every other day for the last week i have had a headache. And the only thing I can take now is that nasty liquid tylenol!!! I would rather swallow a sword!!!! I use to be prone to migraines and what would trigger my migraines is a)not sleeping enough not eatting enough.....The headaches im getting now are not by any means migraines, but dull constant aches.......makes one quite miserable.

Okay...any feed back would be appreciated.

Talk to you later

Sorry those headaches are really a bummer.

It could be a mixture of the 2 not getting enough food into your system and not enough sleep. Are you in the solid mushy stage yet? I would up my food intake a bit and if it is sleep is there anything causing you not to sleep? Can you go to bed earlier?

I usually take the excedrin that melts under your tongue instead of the tylenal those bottles don't last long when you are having them more than once.

bubbame...i dont know if my doctor approve the excedrin...i would sooo much rather use that than tylenol..eck!!! ummm i dont sleep enough, ever...my life just doesn't allow for it....maybe that should be changed.....my mom always said, when anthony, my little guy...goes to bed, you should go to bed....but thats when i do all my housework....i can't go to bed at 9pm...thats crazy talk! i dunno, i will have to figure something out...perhaps a nap in the afternoon once i am out of work, i have about an hour to myself then. upping the food sounds a bit difficult...but i think i have room in there...I am still on mushies...for atleast another week i think. Monday June 6 I go back to my surgeons office.

thank you sooo much for the suggestions!!! i will try a little of both today...extra sleep and food, and see what happens.

ttyl

I had headaches every night for years. Only Anacin worked for me. As far as I'm concerned, Tylenol is a non medicine. Doesn't do a thing.

I was afraid to take anything because I thought it would burn a hole in my pouch but I've been very lucky and have not had a real headache since my surgery. (May 2nd)

Now I think my headaches were due to my blood sugar trying to adjust itself. My blood sugar has been almost normal since a week after surgery.

Good luck to you. I hope your headaches go away like mine did.

The headaches could also mean dehydration. Try intaking more liquids.

I'd go for protein and water.
