Oh my gosh Dej do tell me if you find something that works. Ever since my attack of ON this past October, my eye has not fully 'healed', I was off work 2.5 months to let it heal, limited my time on computers, tv, etc.

I am back to waking up every morning with headaches now that I'm back to work. Just saw the eye specialist yesterday. She's going to see me again in April, but she says the nerve looks good. Waiting for another MRI, grumble...

I too am SICK of these dreadful morning headaches and migraines (not just the head pain - go away floaters, dancing spots, visual disturbances, numbing limbs, slurred speech - I'm done with you all!!!).

It's daily. It's been daily for months before the ON attack. The only time I wasn't getting the headaches was after a long period of 'rest' from looking at anything (literally). And I was fresh off IVSM for about 3 weeks - the sweet spot for me.

Now it feels like it's all going back to square 1 again, slowly but surely. Just wanted to let you know, while I am fortunate I can muster a work day out of this mess, You're not alone where the daily AM headaches are concerned.

I find that sometimes walking first thing helps a little bit. Eventually over the day, they begin to fade, but it takes several hours.
