Title: sensitive head pain over eye
Post by cardogman on Dec 23^rd, 2005, 7:42pm

I need some definitive responses. I am now getting episodes every day oh about 2-3 times per day. Lasts about 1-2 hours and most of the time dies down without any meds like Advil. Oygen helps but it's not permanent. Episodes do occur when I am stressed.

The depomedrol injections in my scalp and neck wore off.

I have chronic pain on the left side of my scalp it feels like it's sort of burning when I touch the area.

I have pain over my eye and it's worse when I move my orbital muscles. My eye feels heavy .

I have pain in the temporal area. This pain is tolerable but very annoying. It's like I banged my head on something and burned my scalp.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THESE SYMPTOMS EVEN WHEN THE CLUSTER PAIN IS NOT THERE AND DO YOU HAVE IT ALL THE TIME. Does this ever go away. I don't like the idea of having this all my life.

Thanks

Burt

No question, hypersensative scalp (even hair), eye, forehead, temple, etc., etc., etc., seems common. There was another thread on this topic recently - check it out. Not an uncommon side effect of attacks.
