strange headaches
In 2009 I had a neck injury that I've had taken care of with great results using Prolothearpy. My last treatment was in October. But since the beginnging of the year I've been getting these head symptoms that i can't seem to find answers for. It starts with an ache above my right ear in the temple are. Then I get pressure behind my eye it's like a mild headache and I sometines feel faint. I've been on 10mg of Prozac and BioIdentical Hormone Replacement Theraph for three years now for. I feel great during the day. I can exercise with great ease. Matter of fact I feel great when I do this. All this starts about 5pm. Today it started with the feeling of things feeling like they were unclear, then I got a drooping feeling in my right eye, My jaw is pretty uncomfortable from being tense. My teeth stated to feel sensitive on the top. I took a half pill of anti-anxiety medication. It's given me the anxiety releif, but I still have the ache.
Do you feel the Prolotherapy has actually helped your condition?
Both your doctor and your chiro "think" you have a pinched nerve, but you said you had an MRI and that while it did show that your neck had not healed properly, it did not show a pinched nerve, which it would have.
Just two nights ago, I had an MRI done on my entire back looking for the cause of the pain I am having, the spine specialist showed me the images and said there were no pinched nerves)
Aside from continuing with therapy, it unfortunately looks like laying on your back is out.
Has surgery to correct this problem been discussed, or is that simply not an option at this point? And have you tried other forms of therapy besides the Prolotherapy?
I'm glad to hear that you had a pretty good day............at least you can say that!
I wish you the best

I did talk to the Dr. that did my Prolotherapy. He thinks I have a pinched nerve. I saw a chiropractor he thought the same thing. I did have an MRI and it showed that my neck never did heal right. If I don't lay on my back I'm good. I had a pretty good day today!
I'm sorry to hear that you are beginning to have symptoms again. Did you have an MRI done at the time this neck injury happened? Some injuries can take a few years to show up and begin to create problems, which is why I would strongly urge you to see a neurologist about this. Most people don't realize that neurologists don't just deal with the brain, but with the entire spinal system as well.
I wish you the very best and hope you will keep us informed about what the doctor says.
