Middle Night Headache And Throwing Up Feeling



Recommended Posts

It is 2 am and l have the dull headache that will not go away,, sore, achy and slight throwing up feeling.

Drank like 64 oz right before bed ( crazy, I know). Not sure why I drank so much, but I was thirsty and I though what the heck..

So naturally I have to make my middle of the night trip to the bathroom. After getting back which seems like a very long time i get the rolling headache that won't go away. Also achy and mouth is dry. So I drink a small cup (3 - 5 oz) of Water. Shortly after I get the refreshing feeling flowing over where my headache was. A few minutes later the headache is back and I have a little more nauseous feeling like maybe I will throw up ( defn know what that feels like over and over again LOL). So now I go get a life water and drink a few ounces think that maybe I watered down my mineral state with the 64 oz before bed. Feeling a little better now, but headache is returning again.

I am going to keep drinking the life water to see if the headaches and throwing up feeling goes away. Do you think this is case of dehydration, mineral dilution or both? Any suggestions?

I am no doctor, but you asked for opinion's and YES! Dehydration can obviously create your extreme thirst (64 oz b/4 going to bed WOW)... But also the symptoms of dehydration are fatigue, weakness, headaches, nausea, chills, head rushes, dry mouth, muscle cramps, increased heart rate and the list goes on!

It sure sounds like you needed to get the fluids in you.. its hard sometimes and I still find myself getting headaches or fatigue and whent that happens I instantly know I did not focus on getting my fluids in me for the day! It is a learning process! Good Luck

Thanks for the response. It is true that i have been unable to get the usual fluids this last week because of business during the day and in evening. Will try and overcome this deficiency in next couple days by being more careful about drinking more.

Terrible headaches today and same nausea. Is it going to be possible for me to rehydrate without going to the ER ( have not yet since surgery for dehydration) . I'll try some Tylenol also.

      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.
