The burning/migraine symptoms come and go, the burning sensation/migraines tend to happen in the early evening and last anywhere from 1-4 hours, then slowly subside. After these episodes, he is exhausted. Some mornings he is so weak that I have to help him out of the bed.
Hi there,
I'm sorry your son is having such an awful time. I don't want to muddy the water but I just read your original message and some of those symptoms can accompany certain types of migraine in some people. The constipation maybe is another issue altogether. I'm glad you are getting another opinion. Please let us know how you get on and how your son is doing.
