I Need Help....

[Jill279 65]

I am on day 2 of my pre op diet. Yesterday went really well today I have a horrible headache! Any ideas to help with the headaches...I took over counter Migraine twice today. Took two more in 24 hours then I was supposed to but I have to get rid of this...still have it.

Up the Water big time. U need lots of h2o.

It is probably coming off carbs and sugar.. Drink lots of Water and it will help.. Everyday it will get better.

It is much easier after surgery..

If it's caffeine withdrawal...there's almost nothing that helps but time. Water is your best bet, I believe also. There is a definite detox effect in the pre op diet. Just something you have to push through.

I'm on my preop diet as well and also have wicked headaches. I didn't drink hardly any caffeine the last two weeks before I starting my preop so I don't think mine is caffeine withdrawal. I saw my surgeon today and he said to drink more Water and add an extra Protein Shake if needed. I'm miserable!!

Try to wean off of aspirin and ibuprofen cuz you will not be able to take it after surgery. You will need to switch to Tylenol. You need to drink more Water.< /p>

I had a headache for the first few days of my preop diet then they went away my dr warned us of this due to detox and carb/sugar withdrawals just take some Tylenol those first few days you'll be fine !

Thank u everyone for the good advice....I am at the end of day four and feeling so much better. The second day was defiantly the hardest so far

I found that by adding just 1 more Protein Drink, it helped with the headaches.
