SO I did great on day one of the preop liquid diet, but today I have a horrible migraine. I don't feel starving or anything....a little head hunger but not real hunger. Do you think the migraine is due to the hunger? It will not go away!
I've heard of this happening to several people, and for some, their surgeon's office has added a startch to their diet once a day. I would definitely consult with your surgeon and see what they think.
Definitely due to the liquids! I had the same thing the first few days. I'm on day 7 of my 2 week pre-op. The migraine should go away.
Good luck! And feel better.
I feel your pain!!!

I'm on day two of two weeks of optifast. I have been getting migrains too along with severe stomach pains and rashes. They told me to take acetaminophen and some bendryl. To help with the headaches and the slight allergic reaction to the optifast and see if it gets better in a day or two.
