so I have a headache, my surgery is on the 6th of April, and I was instructed not to take asprin (cause it thins the blood), so wat meds can I take?? I need to get rid of it! I know I should ask my doc but I didn't think of it! HELP!?!?!

tylenol...but don't take more than the bottle recommends!

thankss monkeyy...

this is a hunger headache...

i'm on my pre-op diet and i didn't eat that much today...so now i have 2 deal..ughhh thankss for ur help again

Could it be allergy? I had one last week that almost took me out and allergy med was the only thing that helped.

nopee it was deff. a hunger headache...as soon as i got some food(or rather some pudding *pre-op liquid diet phase*) in and some tylenol it pretty much went away! I'm sure it won't be my last one..i just started clear liquids today...yikes

I was told my headache was due to carb and caffiene and sugar withdrawl!! I have had a headache now for 2 weeks and tylenol does not phase it!! So I do sympathize with you!I go tuesday for my surgery

I had the headache for 2 days...It has finally gone away (hopefully it dosen't come back tonight)...tom. is my surgery =]

p.s but I would have to agree it is prolly a withdrawl of sugar, caffiene, and carbs!! But I have lost 4lbs in 3days (I think they wanted me to lose about 5lbs & I think I should be able to do that)!

Is headache one of the symptoms of depression? I have it every now and then. I have not discussed it with my doctor nor have taken any medicine for it yet, but I think I am kind of depressed and that is the reason behind it. Can anyone here shed some light on this. Thanks in advance.
