Pre-Surgery Migraine Sufferers?



Recommended Posts

I almost hate to post this! I have been a Migraine sufferer for years. But.........*knock on wood* I have only had one small one, while still in the hospital, since my sleeve. It feels almost surreal to go over a week without one! Could this be related to NOT being addicted to Diet Coke any more??

I'm anxious to hear replies from other sufferers. I'd be tickled to find out people's Migraines decrease after surgery - one more reason to be excited about getting this done!

I have to say I'm glad that I've only had to use my imitrex injection once since surgery I'm 8 weeks out. I still take my topamax and propranolol when I remember lol but thank god I'm not suffering from Migraines every week. Almost like a cure.

I know before my surgery in September I had bad headaches. They pretty much lasted all day. I couldn't take any meds I know would work to take the pain away. Extra strength Tylenol does not work for me. I was having caffeine withdrawals. After surgery was a different story. I got a headache the day after but so far it's like I'm cured from my Migraine headaches I used to have everyday. I am so much happier without those headaches

I've suffered with Migraines for yrs. After surgery on 11-4-13 I've had 2 small headaches. Before surgery I took excedrin Migraine. I didn't want prescription drugs as long as the excedrin was working. Little over 4 wks out and I'm amazed at the difference. I was scared I would have to be put on prescription meds due to no more nsaids!

      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.
