Museum-Mama 196 Posted March 28, 2013 dehydration headaches are killer. FOr me, they are usually directly in the forehead or top of my head. MAke sure you are getting your fluids in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geminidrive 389 Posted March 28, 2013 You can take tylenol, it may help. But the best thing to do is to consult with your doctor if it persists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariamitani 405 Posted March 28, 2013 Low sugar/carbs can also cause it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first week or so my whole throat felt pretty raw and it felt like everything was clunk clunking down until it finally hit a painful bottom.. It does get better I'm time though.

No game 14,437 Posted March 29, 2013 And heres another question How do we eat now? I mean....how long should it take to eat a 1/4 cup of soft food? and when I drink plain Water why do I feel an acid fire ball in my chest? am i drinking to fast??? Most doctors will say to take about a half hour to eat the 1/4 cup of food.chew slow and a lot also take a minute or two between bites. You might be drinking to fast.. You can also play with the temperatures of the water... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rachel marie 42 Posted March 29, 2013 you know wht...it could be slight dehydration because when I try to drink I get this horrible feeling in my chest its like a fire air bubble...do any of u know why im getting that I think it's probably reflux. I too have been feeling that way. I think my headaches are a cross between clenching my jaw and detoxing off sugar, caffeine, carbs etc. try some baby Tylenol. But definitely try to drink some more Water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
