Thank you, you sound very proffesional I am very impressed but at the same time not quite sure where ium supposed to be pushing, but thank you heaps, I will try it once I understand it ty

will let you know how I go

I've just erased a lot, this page was full, my daughter says I have to make my e-mails shorter. I know for a fact that u need to see a doctor. Don't do like I did, u need help & somehow u need to get 2 a doctor. I've been suffering all my life, so I know exactly what u r talking about, the headaches got worse after a car accident. Having headaches to the point of tears isn't healthy at all. In 1995 I became addicted to darvocet, because I was having pain so bad. I'm still having really bad headaches, but since my brain surgery I have a lot of doctors taking care of me the best that they can. I got to the point where I was having hallucinations & hearing things in my head & I really thought that if I told the doctors this, they will think i'm just going crazy. It frighten me so bad, that I eventually told them. I had all kinds of specialists. I wasn't happy at all with the idea of psychiatrist. I had a headache for 3-months & I was just to sick to go to the doctor. That's why i'm telling u so that this won't happen to u. I'm 43, still suffering, but that's just one of my symptoms. I have about 10 more. Please! Get in contact with someone, u don't want to get to this point where I am now. You really need help. I hope u understand this. It took me about 2 hours to write this. I believe the doctors to put a piece back in my head.(lol) I wish u much success! Bye, bye!!

Yes that is exactly what I get. This happend about 6 weekd ago
it starts behind the left eye now has moved around by the ear and sometimes the neck. Terrible pain.
I went to 3 doctors who all told me migraine. Had an mri showing normal. Eye doc normal. But i'm still scared some thing terrible will happen at any minute.
However. I found excersice has helped me. Try running tred mill is what I do as much as you can. When I stop the pain starts to come back. I also use excedrin for migraine. And have stronger if I wait to long. "relpax" . Stay away from amitrex as side effects are pretty debilitating.
My headaches seam to be getting a bit better but come back every 2 days or so. I hope this is not something I now have to ;live with. I was in perfect shape before this. I'm 39 male. Healthy
i went to a chiroprator once but I think i'll stop because i've read some stories against that. Anybody have any views on chiroprators.
I'm now doing yoga to.
Anyone else just get pain and no other side effecfts. Is this still considered migraine or cluster headache.???
I'm also taking magnesium feverfew and riboflavon. I've read this could help.

Hey, I completely understand not having the money to see your family doctor, but you need to see someone.

Here's a couple things to keep in mind:

if it gets really bad, go to the hospital. They have to treat you, even if you have no insurance, and no money. And every hospital will work with you financially, I know people who after going to the hospital and getting a bill later in the mail, called the hospital, and the balance was dropped (there was a lot of paperwork, and proving your income and such, but it is possible)

the other thing you can try is a clinic. A lot of clinics are associated with hospitals, and the other way around (hospitals associated with clinics) some clinics offer free medical treatment to qualifying patients, and for others they work on a sliding scale. But there are clinics everywhere, in every city. So you just have to look.


Hmm... I just realized something... Are you in the us? Cus if not, this info may not help at all. I don't know how healthcare works in other countries... Just here.

At any rate, I hope this info helps. And I hope you get help. Headaches can be nasty, and can completely prevent you from living a normal life.

Ok...My niece is having a problem with head lice and we have tried everything,short of cutting off all of her hair. Does anyone know what will nuke the little s.O.B.S we are soo frustrated and she has been missing so much school over this,she was sent home again today for the same reason.

This is to steve. Yes you hear horror stories about chiropractors, but they are mostly rumors. If you don't want to be cracked the old fashioned way, a lot of the new chiropractors have all of that new equipment that does everything for them. I hear it doesn't even hurt. You may want to try that.

Hi
does any one have temporal arteritis.
Or symptoms like eyes and head feel very tight and a burning hot feeling in the sides of head and face tongue mouth?
Please let me know if you have anything like.

I woke up last Sunday with a headache like I have never had. By Tuesday at work I was wishing I could just die! incidentally I also had progressive swelling of the right tempral area of my face & a "ropie knot" around the area of the artery. Was tender to touch. I work in ICU so I asked one Doc if I should go see my Doc, he was not to concerned, not being satisfied on of my co-workers grabbed a Family Practice doc who said it was a deep staph infection (not hot or red or temp.???) I went to my Internal Med. guy to beg for drugs for the headache, and report the horrible fatigue. He immediately said tempral arteritis and prescribed the medrol pack after taking the first 6 tabs..my headache was gone within 1 hour and prednisone is cheap. He also said thaat it could cause blindness. Now I am still experiencing the dizziness and fatigue, he did say may have to do another round of the Prednisone but we'll see, I also see an accupuncture gal who specializes in chinese medicine she also helped.
hope this helps, Katie2
PS without any medical backround or teaching I don't think anyone should be rubbing or pressing on an already inflamed and angry artery in your head..Just a nurses take on it.
