Title: New symptoms
Post by Bonnie lee on Jul 19th, 2012 at 3:23pm
All day yesterday i kept feeling sick. Though for sure i was coming down with a sinus infection. pressure in my forehead and my nose and my left ear. I was like oh jeez this is all i need.
Then last evening it hit. Of course the devil always comes to see me in the evenings. But i never had symptoms like that before it. this is new. And this time he stayed all night!!! He would leave and he would come all Damn night!!!
I have never had episodes like this!!!
He usually just comes for about 30 to 40 minutes and leaves.
Today my left eye is still killing me and i am so tired.
Has anybody else had these sinus like symptoms before hand?

I don't think it's sinus symptoms necessarily, and yes, I have. The trigeminal nerve runs in such a way that ear, eye and nose are all connected. My worst attacks are when all 3 trigger at once, starting with a burning sensation that culminates in fantastic feelings of pressure behind my affected eye. It sucks. Happens often enough I recognize what's coming and can generally head it off. Not at night, though. I wake up and its raging. I hit it with the abortive du jour, migranal or imitrex, and O2. God bless. lance

I have the same experience as Lance.  That trigeminal nerve is like the Bermuda Triangle of pain for me. Ear infections can trigger CH, or CH can cause stuffiness leading to ear problems, and then there's the whole sinus issue to muck things up. I've come to hate that nerve with a passion.   >:(
