Brand new headache
Jan 22^nd, 2009 at 11:36am

Now I have a new headache! Just what I need.
It is not CH
It is not Migraine
It is not those 2 second eye pain ones.

It starts at the back of my head right were the skull meats the spine.
Heat does not help
Ice does not help
Imiterx does not help
Excedrin does not help

I have had it for almost 4 days now.
It comes with nausea and throwing up, but I do not feel sick.
Pain killers do help, but only for a while.

To top it all off I am suffering from panic attacks.

Just had a new cat scan done yesterday, I do not know the results yet.
Not that I think any one has any answers here just needed to unload.

Love ya'll
Gena

Posts: 524 x0\|philadelphia\|USA\|\|0\|0\|PA,Pennsylvania Gender:	Re: Brand new headache Reply #6 - Jan 22^nd, 2009 at 4:27pm I had a similar headache recently. It lasted for a few days on and off. Sometimes coming on suddenly and when I did something some what strenusous. Its gone now. I attributed to withdrawal from sudden stop of verapamil but who the hell knows. Motrin worked pretty good

Posts: 54 Portland Oregon Gender:	Re: Brand new headache Reply #8 - Jan 22^nd, 2009 at 6:27pm That sounds like a worse version of what I was going though this week. Are you sure it's not just cramped over-tensed muscles? My doctor gave me a muscle relaxant to take at night, and i slept great last night and finally woke up without that pain at the base of my neck for the first time in three days or so.

I hope you feel better.

But he felt like a horrible flu with it so maybe not the same.

yes very much so Tongue

I have been going through the same thing, and the only thing I can really attribute to it is the enormous amount of stress, anxiety and lack of sleep I'm having.

Do you have anything you can take for your anxiety?
