Mate, there would be very few of us who are qualified, or even willing, to make such a call...

With everyone being so different, there's no way any of us could know your specific situation...

Perhaps a trip to your local ER or similar might be the go...

I know this probably doesn't help you but it's certainly not something I'd be comfortable giving advice on...

Good luck to you...

@@hamoudi if it's the surgeon's office that's on vacation try your PCP's office.....or even the nurses station at the hospital where you were.....you need medical advice no Internet forum advice. I hope you feel better soon!

Glad you got it sorted...

Just a thought - Have you been making sure to get all your Water in?

Dehydration will cause bad headaches...

Not assuming...

Just checking...

@@hamoudi - are you still 'withdrawing' from some foods? Caffeine for example? I don't know how long or if you had to go without it and it does cause headaches.

Like KF mentioned dehydration can also cause headaches and in my case I also has BP that had dropped -

      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.
