Headache and Migraines Forum - Severe Headaches

For me having headaches isnt completly unusual sense i have epilepsy( mild form thats being treated sense i was a small child) Well anyway. the past couple of weeks i have been having bad headaches, but for the last 2- 3 days that have gotten pretty severe. I have been having bad pain on the right side of my head, and very sharp pains at the front of my head. Im not sure what it is really.

I just barely managed to handle the light, ive been keeping it dark in my home because of the headaches. Anybody have nay answer or recomendation to ease the pain?

Are these headaches pulsating ones, accompanied with nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to noise or light?

ok so im sure i figured out the problem now, after a bit of research and reading on the new BC i was taking was causing the headaches, found other ppl had the same problems, i stopped taking it and the headaches went away. so all is well now Smile

Having seizures or epilepsy needs to be taken in consideration by the gynecologist before Yaz is prescribed.
Yaz can induce a seizure attack.
Headache is one of the most common symptoms of using Yaz, and other BC pills.

Best wishes!
