Headache! After eating every time!



Recommended Posts

I have been getting headaches after I eat. It doesnt matter what I eat, how slow i eat it, etc. It isn't like a migrane headache, i get those too which are sometimes induced by things I eat. Does anyone else experience this? It is kinda an all over headache pounding starts slow and then gets worse. It starts about a half hour after I eat.

Huh... that's a new one to me. I guess it can't hurt to check with your doctor about it. I can only think that it's some weird nerve related thing-- but that would probably only make sense if it was pain at a specific spot, right? Like I get pain in my shoulder when I need to stop eating. Does it happen every time? Maybe start keeping a journal so you can see if there is something related to what, when, etc.

I also experience headaches. However it goes away if I PB. Sometimes it starts if I eat too much or too fast. Have you monitored your eating?

I get the headaches - it usualy means (FOR ME) that i am done eating... Ive noticed that regardless if i eat slow or a lil faster, i still get them. My dr said everyones body tells them differently when ur full, so i assume this is mine - its not a major headache, almost like the onset of one - once i stop eating, im OK, it goes away after 5 min or 10. good luck

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
