I saw a neurologist few months ago. He thought it was some huge migraine and gave me the maximum dose of Steroid to break it. I took it for 10 days without any change. I told him about the concussion I had 3 years ago. He didn’t think it could be possible. I’m seeing a physiotherapist for the stiffness in the back of my neck. It bothers me and I put ice often when I have those head ache. Like today! Moving my eyes to any direction is more painful. The pain is inside the skull right in the back of the eyes. At the top part in the back of the eyes. It’s really hard to explain. Hope this is clearer. It’s there all day long and getting worse if I’m exposing to lights or reading and other things. When I have those head ache the paint is in the back of my neck were the neck and head meet, but nothing like burning just stiffness and if I move its worse. The frontal lobe right on top of the eyes is the most painful part of the head ache. I feel it right under the skin/hair like a pressure from inside. The eyes and head ache paint are on bolt side but the sharp pain when I eat is only on the left side. When I talk or sleep on that side I can feel something just over where is the jaw joint, closed to the ear. I’m taking these medications. The Novo-Betahistine 24 mg 2 to 3 times a day is working a bit. I try to stop taking it for couple days and the dizziness is getting worse. Taking it doesn’t make a huge difference but it’s better. The Flunarizine 5 mg is supposed to help to prevent the head ache…At the beginning I had head ache all the time for 4 weeks nonstop. Now it’s more 2 to 3 times a week. They still are strong when they come but not as often. When I was trying to work these was getting worse, like at the beginning. The Amitriptyline 25 mg is supposed to work on the nerve by slowing it…..not too sure about it but since I begin it, it makes the dizziness worse. The Doc said to continue it and the body should get use to it. She is the doc. The last one is Garbamazepine 100 mg twice a day. I haven’t begin it. I want to make sure I need to. There is a lot side effect. Thanks all to reply! Steve |
