The Headaches!

[Sheffield27]

Hi Everyone,

I moved onto a low carb diet about 4 weeks ago following strong advice from doc to "clean up my act" success has followed, lower BMs, have lost about 4 -5 lb. However..

I have started suffering from quite intense headaches regualrly - Does anyone know if this is a side effect of low carbing? - I imagine my HB1c will be dropping as well due to the better control,

Am a bit downheartened because I "felt" better when i wasnt in control,

Cheers

Hi, Well done on your lower BMs and weight loss. :thumbup:

I am a very low carber and I find that I get headaches when I don't have enough fluids. If I have 2ltrs+ of water a day I seem to stay headache free. May be that could be your problem, at least it would be worth considering upping your fluid intake to see if that helps.
