Welcome, Rich. No, I haven't had any headaches. Just an overall lack of energy.

I'll let you know if a few days Rich. I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow. What kind of headaches are you experiencing?

 

[rich]

just sort of nagging headache after surgury they said my heart rate dropped a little while i was being monitored. i think its cause i have apnea but they took me off my blood pressure medicine until i could follow up with the cardiologist on tuesday and im wondering if thats where the headaches are coming from so confused

I was off of blood pressure meds within a week with problems however we all respond differently when we stop medications, it may also be the sleep apnea although I have heard that as most folks lose weight the sleep apnea goes away and they lose the need for the CPAP machine, if you are on one. It could also be mild dehydration if you are not able to get enough fluids in. Tom
