My sister started having these head pains about a year ago. She has been on tons of meds and went to a special clinic that deal with people having head pains daily, but no help. When she came home from the clinic after a 3 week stay her pain level that was always a 5 was down to 3 (tolerable she says) They took her off one of her meds and her pain went up to a 5 again! Now after a few weeks they put her back on the medicine, I am sorry I cannot think of the name right now) but it isn't helping.
Yesterday she went to her Neuroligist and they did a nerve block in her head, and it triggered a painful head pain which is really bad still today, she just cries. I am really desperate here, I need some help. This scares me when we are sick and know one can help. I will take any advice, please I have to help her!
Cheryl has had no injuries to her head, the only medical problem she has and has had it for years, is a birth defect of sponge kidneys. Cheryl develops kidney stones and passes them frequently. This has nothing to do with the head pains the drs. say. I can't think that it would, but I am open for anything. She has even been taken off her job as a bank teller with disability, and her health insurance is done next month. Thanks for listening, and I appreciate all information anyone has to pass along...God bless! busybee
