Hi Mark,
I'm really sorry to hear about the melancholy, but glad you've found some relief. Things WILL get better. Please let us know how you're doing.
Have you had melancholy prior to these last few weeks? Have you noticed any stimulants or situations that have brought it on? I am a pretty depression-prone person but I haven't had melancholy that much since the accident. A huge sense of defeat, yes, but melancholy and dark thoughts not as much.
There is a test the upper cervical chiropractor did measuring my flight or fight response I guess as a measure of anxiety. My reaction was a bit slower than a healthy reaction should be. Wondering too if this has anything to do with it. I'm not explaining it well, but I'm happy to scan it and send it to you to look at, pm me if you're interested. Are you still going to an upper cervical?
How long the Excedrin relief last?
Remember things WILL get better.

In August woke with thunderclap-type headache in right side of head, right eye was droopy. Ever since had electrical-type pulsating all over when falling asleep and during sleep. Strong muscle twitching occasionally. Chest pain in heart region, front left neck region, and left shoulder. Strong heartbeat noise in head and occasional weird noises in ears. Taking Gabapentin to control nighttime nerves. Other symptoms: anxiety attacks, goosebumps, fine motor coordination problems, sleep apnea, headaches/migraines, fatigue, unclear thinking.
Update as of Jan. 2015 - almost all symptoms gone except for some tinnitus. Taking good care of myself except sometimes when I overdo it.
