Headaches due to poor digestion? 5 months po

Posted , 3 users are following.

I experienced headaches a few weeks after GB removal which thankfully cleared up after a week or two. I'm now 5 months po and have recently had some digestion issues due to bad eating I suspect. I started getting headaches again the past week and very sticky bowel movements.

Anyone else experience this?

      thank you.

      I do have IBS and have had it most of my life on and off. The gallbladder removal has caused some flare-ups but I've never experienced these sticky bowel movements . I think it might have something to do with not being able to absorb fats.

      I must admit I don't drink much water so will try that.
