headache,heartburn and hunger



Recommended Posts

These things are bothering me.

1. Headaches are bad and twice threwup tylenol

2. Ive been on Nexium for 11 yrs amd never got it while on it. I dont wanna have it while on it.

3. Never felt pronounced hunger pains pre surgery. I heard many times that you will not feel hungry after surgery. Not true I feel hungry a lot. What's up?

I didn't get hungry before surgery but now I do, guess it's because I can't seem to put anything solid down. 2nd week out and can still only do liquids.< /p>

I don't know. I feel hungry a lot too. I've been wondering about it. I'm pondering if maybe it's just the gasses and bubbles rumbling through me although... I find myself thinking a lot about food and when I will get to have yogurts and Tomato Soup. All the commercials on tv drive me crazy. I've also been wondering if it isn't just that our bodies are basically starving right after the surgery and demanding nutrition because even though I am hungry my stomach tells me quickly that it's not an option. Yay for being hungry AND sorta nauseous at the same time. Not sure if this is what you are experiencing too.

Early on I felt hungry but now the feeling has lessened and maybe it was more of a head hunger at first. I definitely feel and hear more gurgling than pre-op and it could be mistaken for hunger. The Protein Shakes fill me up though...I use the GNC amplified wheybolic extreme 60 with skim milk...and be sure to avoid fluids about 30 minutes before and after a meal or else you will get hungry faster. I had the headache during the pre-op diet phase which is normal when you are consuming less carbs and your body is using fat as its energy source. I don't know when you had your surgery but I think it is getting easier in many ways.

I get hungry during PMS, it is so hard...

Hope you feel better soon and those headaches go away for good.

Headache and hunger are both symtoms of dehydration. Maybe try upping your Water intake.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
