Artificial sweetner

I am worried about artifical sweetners, as of now I get headaches when I eat anything with it in the item. I know after my RNY I cannot have the real sugar and a lot of the recipes I see is sugarfree which has the artificial sweetners. I heard that your tastebuds change after awhile from surgery. Has anyone had this problem with sweetners, but was able to overcome it throughout time after surgery?

I am four years post op and have always used artificial sweeteners. I have never had a headache or migraine until this last Jan. I have now had this migraine for 2.91 days. I went off the sweeteners and it still did nothing.
I am not sure if that helped but good luck. It might be better just to do all natural stuff with no sweeteners at all.
Best wishes Kristen

 I have issues with many of the sweetners.. have you tried the natural ones like stevia?  If your local walmart / grocery store doesnt carry it - a natural store will or you can go to this site and order it online... http://www.getingethealthy.com  Hope this helps

Thank you for the advice. My husband uses Stevia I did try it once and it seemed very sweet but I only tried a sip of his. It is worth it to be able to add sweetner without problems either way headache or dumping. Thank you again.

I had my RYN 11/15/04 and I have seens that day used Splenda then they came out with Walmart brand,then Public,Winne Dixie,and now my SaveALot carries SOLO brand all the same no taste differences at all,and I have NEVER had any issues with them,I use it when I cook,coffee,koolaid,   Now I cant do sweetnlow,those blue packets,or any of the others we only use the off brand of Splenda its cheaper and way cheaper at Savealot its $3;99 per bag as Splenda is like $7;00 a bag.
