headaches?

Have many of you gotten headaches now that you did not have before?
Im use to them, get migraines usually each month with cycle.
I had one this week that lasted 4 days, off and on.

FINALLY today it went away.

Im not sure if related to this or not, thought Id ask my sisters!

I get migraines, too. I had them before - usually when I wasn't getting enough sleep, but sometimes "just because." I've had a few since surgery, too. I know I'm getting LOTS of sleep now so I don't understand. I wondered if it was surgery-related, too.

I hope you don't get anymore of those marathon migraines!!! Maybe some of the other Sisters will have some advice or insight?

I was so frustrated with my headaches post-op. I was wondering how a person who was on both motrin and vicoden could get such splitting head pain. I stopped taking anything but pain meds for a couple of days, and then slowly adding back the "additives".
Turns out that the Gas-X was causing it!

Now I'm a bit gassy once in a while, but much happier.

Hmmm I have been taking gas x, because I still have gas... I will try not to take that and see if better! thanks!

hmmm I wonder if thats it? I have ben getting hair splitting headaches, and yeah with pain meds, how does it happen they dont go away? I wonder also if besides the gasX if its loss of hormones guys?? grrr I just want them to stop. God Bless.

I developed a headache last night that hasn't gone away, which perplexes me since I'm taking 800 mg of motrin every 8 hours (nothing else.) I remember reading somewhere that it can be a sign of estrogen deficiency?

I had terrible headache in the hospital from the morphine drip, and also from the percocet given to me after i came home.. once I stopped those meds.. headache went away.....

Im not alone, I guess that is a good thing. Im gonna ask my dr about this too....
Im sure blood test can be done to check the levels? I hope so.
take care

I have had a monster, put me to bed headache since Thursday. NOTHING will touch it, nothing. I feel like I may need to go to urgent care for some relief. I am trying to hold out til monday to see my doc. I haven't had bad migraines in years! But I have the whole thing, naseua, sensitivity to light and sound, dizziness, and the tingling/numbness on the right side of my face. I am going to go lay back down. I had to pay a bill online and thought I would check in quickly. But the light from the monitor is starting to kill me.

I had an absolutely horrible migraine in recovery and continued to get them as bad for about two weeks post op. I am now 16 days post op and see an end in sight. The doc has me on a migraine med and figures that it is due to the fact that my one ovary had to figure out it had to do all the work. Hormonal imbalance (which also explained the terrible hot and cold flashes that are now almost gone ) Still have some pain and definitely tire easily but seem to be healing as I should. I am going stir crazy doing so little as I was in college full time and working almost full time plus church and recovery activities. Had the hysterectomy due to large fibroid tumor that was causing lesions on my uterus. Hope your migraines get better.
