Severe headaches
by PaigeBrennan, May 14, 2008 10:14PM
My 10 year old daughter has had severe and continuous headaches for the past 2 months. She has been through every type of testing the doctors could think of (MRI, eye exam, blood tests, allergy, spinal tap for viral meningitis, neurological) and we are unable to figure out what it is. All of the testing other than allergy has turned out normal. We are treating the allergies with Veramist and Xyzal, but she is not getting any relief. None of the headache meds are working. These headaches are constant with dizziness and sometimes nausea. She has never had this kind of thing before. Could it be a form of diabetes?

If she does a fasting blood glucose test, they can determine if she is Diabetic type 1.
In the meantime, try Benadryl sinus and allergy 12 hour pills. They help me a TON!!!
Tell her to hang in there!
