Need help!

After being hit in the forhead and dazed for about 5 min. back on March 13, 2007, I have had constant headaches/neckpain. I have gradually worsened to have other symptoms such as: numbness and tingling in arms and face, right hand turning purple several times in the last week, dizzieness, falling, vision problems, sensitivity to light, nausea, some vomiting, hard time concentrating, memory problems, sore throat, to name the most troublesome. I had chiropractic work in the beggining months in accordance with my doctor's recommendation. But I stopped a few months ago when it seemed to be aggravating the problem. The last time put me in bed for a few weeks! Every time the atlas area is messed with (i.e. massage, chiropractic, physical therapy), I get worse. No pain meds have worked and I have been on several meds including migraine meds which have not done anything. I've had a head and neck MRI. The head MRI written report said something about a venous anomaly on the right frontal lobe but my doctor was unfamiliar with what it was so didn't investigate it further. I just really need help because it is really controlling my life and therefor my future also. I am in constant pain and would like any suggestions on how to relieve the pain!!

Hiya,

Get back to your doctor and tell him you want the venous anomaly investigated. Dont take NO for an answer.
