Pre op liquid diet headaches

After a few days of sticking to the liquid diet my headaches went away. it's only when I slipped up and had carbs did the headaches return. No headaches since surgery -

Any March Surgeries?
bigred88 replied to Hopefulin2021's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had mine the 3rd, hurts to stand up but besides that not doing too bad. Worst part was the 1st night I was home I ended up in the er because I ripped open some stitches and was bleeding profusely. Been fine since they glued me up though Sent from my SM-A515U1 using BariatricPal mobile app -

Hang in there, they should go away after a couple of days. Just make sure you're not having any carbs Sent from my SM-A515U1 using BariatricPal mobile app -
Pre-Admin Testing
bigred88 replied to Hopefulin2021's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
All they did was take my blood pressure and draw blood to check my type. I already had a ekg and other blood work done recently so didn't have to do any of that, will have to go for a covid test Sunday but after that I'm good to go. What did you have done?

Which protein did you guys drink for the 2 week liquid diet?
bigred88 replied to Gregory822's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
At first I ordered the bariatric fission powder to make my own shakes. They were fine but without the blender and ice they are gross so I switched to the pre mixed premiere protein for when I'm at work. Most of the flavors have been ok, salted caramel the best so far because the little taste of salt goes a long way when all you are doing is drinking sweet protein shakes and eating sweet jello and Popsicles Sent from my SM-A515U1 using BariatricPal mobile app -
Hi there, I'm on my three week pre op diet right now, about a week into it and the headaches are constant. Its not overly painful , they just never let me forget that they're there. Any tips on how to deal with this? Tylenol is not helping the situation whatsoever. Really can't wait for these next few weeks to be behind me Sent from my SM-A515U1 using BariatricPal mobile app
