For the last three days I woke up with a headache. I was wondering if I am lacking

lacking anything. I take my vitamins b12,c,e,centrium,zinc, iron and tums for calium? Has anyone experience this? I don't have sinus problems. I was just wondering if my body is telling I am lacking something. I am 13months out and down 125lbs. Thanks!!!    — [Anonymous] (posted on May 27, 2001)

How much sugar are you getting, too? Constant ingestion of small amounts of sugar, milk, yogurt, applesauce (incidental sugars) can cause headaches, too. Also, one hopes you are also taking 1500-2000mg calcium citrate + D + magnesium to get the calcium into your bones, yes? The tums are not going to save you from osteoporosis, unfortunately.

A headache can also be a sign of dehydration...not getting in enough water. I have found that even pre-op, you can get headaches from lack of water...so be esp careful post-op that you are getting enough water in.
