Pain Behind Left Eye Posted: 07-01-07 18:30pm
I have been getting a sharp pain behind my
left eye to where it makes me nauseous. My
eye has started twitching when the pain
gets worse. Even when I move my eye it
sends a pain through my eye. I read some
of the other stories and I'm not sure if
mine is the same please let me know.

Welcome to .ehealth!
I'm sorry you've been experiencing this.
How often does it happen? How long does it
last when it does happen? Have you noticed
any triggers ? (maybe exercise or long
periods of concentration) Have you taken
any meds for the pain? If so, have they
helped?
I'm sorry for all the questions. I'm just
trying to get a better picture.

It happens everyday I wake up with the
headaches only with slight pain then as
the day goes on it gets worse. When I
exercise it does start throbbing and it
keeps throbbing for about 3 hours
afterward. I don't take any meds except
for over the counter sinus medicine trying
to get it to stop. It dulls the pain,but
it never actually takes it 100% away.

Hi Posted: 07-03-07 18:22pm
You really should see your primary care
physican and maybe a neurologist referred.
You stated these headaches were continous,
which is questionable. An MRI, MRA or CAT
scan could maybe pinpoint any possible
trouble area. Aneurysmsdo tend to run in
families, strokes are hitting younger
people these days.... Its always better to
be safe than sorry. I am one of the lucky
ones who survived a cerebral anuerysm.
Anytime I hear of someone with headaches
that are not being relieved from over the
counter meds or presc. meds...its time to
see the Doc! Hope you find relief!
