Ok pushing fluids down ð?'?. My stomach is very bloated and soar. The doctor took care of a hernia as well.
This can be a reaction to pain meds. If it feels like a hangover I would ask for a milder pain pill. I definitely had these issues in the past.

The headache is probably from the anesthesia. It will get better soon. Just push the fluids in whatever form you need to. Extra fluids make everything a little better.

Hi goldn02girl,
Thank you so much for your advice. I will pick up sugar-free popsicles tomorrow. I will start with protein shakes tomorrow as well. Your suggestions are appreciated.
Good luck if you haven't still haven't had your surgery and good luck afterward! Mindfulness eating is a good way to keep on track! I am 5 days post-op.
I love the mindfulness eating suggestions! I am 5 days post-surgery and my counselor had suggested mindful eating to keep from overeating and eating things I crave.
Hi! I just had mine on Monday, July 22. I tend to experience headaches if I am not hydrated enough. Here is what works for me: I drink my 3 8oz protein shakes that I was on during my pre-op to get my 60 ozs of protein. I also have bottled water that I drink in between, herbal tea. It's really hot here, so I haven't eaten the broth yet. I do love the sugar free tropical icicles (from WalMart). They also are hydrating. Before my surgery, I had a supplement called Spark from Advocare and it has always given me energy and it is made with 8 ozs of water. Hope this helps! I am learning too

Hi, had my gastric sleeve done on Wednesday and trying to get fluids down, walking and drinking the broth, sugar-free jello and drinking isopure water. However, I am experiencing an awful headache on my left temple.
Thank you! Finally starting to feel better and like myself again 
Ha! I started to see a path in my living room rug! Thank you, finally feeling better..
