Recommended Posts

Hi guys..

I'm on my third day pre op and I have a bad Migraine headache ..I had a hunger headache yesterday and I was ok but today is not a hunger headache its a migraine.

I suffer of chronic migranes for years already. My surgery is Saturday and I'm just doing a 5 day pre op.do far I lost 4 lbs I am so happy.!! But This headaches... Ugh.!! I just want ti chop my head of..lol

So far I'm doing good I did get hunger attacks once in a while but I drink my Water with crystal light or a Protein Shake and I'm good.

I do feel sleepy.. not wanting to do nothing but I guess that's normal..

So mg question is what can I take? Any pill? I read in a webpage Tylenol I'd acceptable. But I want to make sure. Cause I can really appreciate one right now..!!

Please any opinions ....

Thank you guys ..

only Tylenol is acceptable I think prior to surgery. try to drink more Water it might help.

I don't get Migraines, but my headaches were horrible the first 3 days. Try to stick to it though, I lost 11 pounds the first week.

      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.
