Q: Is This a Headache

I have suffered from migraine for 10 years now and being treated for them. They always affected the left side of my face. For the past three months I have had stabbing pains in both eyes and right side of my temples. Is this another form of migraines? :)

I have had similar pains around my temples for the past couple of years. And when my head aches would get to bad, it felt like both my right and left temples were about to explode. My veins where my temples are you can also feel stick out when this happens, and its very painful :? I have been put on medicine for headaches, but they never seemed to help.

Thanks for reply. I have been on zomig for the last few years. Normally my migraine effects the left side of my head and face but since march I have been getting stabbing pains in my right eye and temple. I am actually seeing a doctor tomorrow, so I am quite anxious to see what he has to say. For the past 3 or 4 months I have had more bad days then good days. I will let you know what he has to say.

I have been to the doctor and he says he doesn't think it's too much to worry about. He knows it's pretty agravating for me, he also thinks it could be a chemical imbalance causing my headaches to be worst or different. He is consulting with my regular doctor and he will put me an another medication. I am seeing my regular doctor in june. The other thing was he really thinks I should a get a protective screen for my computer.
