can headache associated with thyroid???

[kimmer_7]

I have had a constant headache for 6 months after my son was born, I was diagnosed with tension haedaches but that was not the case, then dianosed with sinus headaches also not the case. Before i became pregnant with my son, i had a daughter who is now two then suffered 2 miscarriages. THey thought it could have been spinal headaches but that was also not the case. I have pain in my eyes, cheeks, all over my head. forhead, behind ears, ringing in left ear, sore neck, difficulty swallowing, sore throat at times, numbness feeling in face and teeth, hands feel weak, nervousness, eye spasms, increased bowel movements, i've lost 10 more pounds then my pre-pragnancy weight, tremors in feet at times, but mainly constant head and neck pain. I"ve been to physio, massage, chiro, been on many types of anti inflamitory drugs, anti depressants, steriods, nothing helps it nothing.  I still have not began menstration and it;s been 6 months, i quit breastfeeding 3 months ago, when i quit breast feeding it seemed they got worse, I'm wondering if in anyway this could be related to a thyroid disfuntion. please help i'm suffering.

I have had graves disease for 8 years. I was also diagnosed during pregancy and had headaches after every day. I thought they were migraines or tension headaches but, it ended up being my blood pressure was way too high. I hope this helps you.

Would test thyroid but also test prolactin.  Consider brain imaging (CT or MRI) if appropriate and not already done.
