Migraine Or Sinus Infection Or Worse?... Posted: 11-02-07 00:33am
About two years ago I was diagnosed with
having severe migraines. They come and go,
and only really act up when I am in a
stressful environment for long periods of
time. For the last six or so months I have
been migraine free up until three weeks
ago when I started getting a migraine.
(mine is usually behind my right eye and I
cannot stand light or sound). So I have
been taking motron for it because it wasnt
very bad. Anyway, today it got very bad
for about a half an hour and then all of a
sudden the pressure, pain, everything went
away and it was a huge relief, until i
started feeling a dripping from my nose,
and im like that's weird and I look down
and my hand is covered in blood. Blood was
just pouring out of my nose for about 15
minutes and then it finally stopped.
But right now, I am still very worried and
I am making an appointment with my
physician but is there anything anyone can
tell me as to what this might be?
Thank you for reading and any suggestions.
-M.

Was the bleeding coming from both
nostrils?
Did you experienced more intensive
headache after bleeding?
What was the intensity of headache before
bleeding?
Do you suffer from high blood pressure?
Some Migraineurs have reported nose bleeds
with Migraines,and this is also from their
blood pressure raising because of the
Migraine.
Please see your doctor!
Nose bleeding with headache require prompt
medical attention.

-No the bleeding was coming from the left
nostril (the pain was on the right side).
-Not quite, it wasn't as bad, but it still
hurt.
-On a scale of 1 to 10, about a 9.8
-No I do not suffer from high blood
pressure, in fact i took mine right
afterwards I believe it was 108 / 69 and
my pulse was 63. Which its always been low
so I'm not sure if that is cause for
concern either.
I plan on seeing the Doctor today, if I
can't get in with my GP then I plan on
going to the E.R.
Thank you though for your help.

Did you get prompt medical attention?
Did the doctor find out the cause of
bleeding?
