Headache post-op?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved Monday and came home today (Wednesday) and I have had a headache since shortly after I got home. It went away for a bit after I took my pain med, but it's now back.

I only got in about 42oz of Fluid vs 56 goal, but I was on IV until just before I left so I don't think it's dehydration.

Anyone else have this experience? I obviously can't take anything for it, but it seems like a dumb reason to call the office (not on the "watch out for"list)

My headache was caffeine withdrawal, I normally drink coffee, after my first cup the headache went away

Ouch. I gave up caffeine when I started the program so that's not it for me, though it does kind of feel like that.

I had a headache, too. About a week out. I think it was because calories were too low - 300 about.




That's all I managed to get down yesterday so that could be it.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
