Someone please help
by Kellie95, Sep 23, 2008 08:15PM
I've had a headache that has lasted everyday for four (4) months now. The pain is all over my head not just one side.Lights and sometimes sound will bother it more. At times the pain will go to the back of my neck. I have a hard time concentrating and trying to get words out that I want to say. I've had many tests done and they all come back fine. The test that have been done are the following:
1. EEG
2. MRV
3. Lumbar puncture
I've went to the ER for them and they just say there headaches. DUH!!
If anyone has any suggestions please share them with me.
Thanks a bunch!!

Thanks for writing in.
Any headache which lasts for prolonged periods of time needs to be evaluated further. I would suggest you to undergo a CT scan or MRI of head and neck to rule out neurological causes like nerve compression, abnormal growths etc.
In the meantime you can discuss the option of taking Topamax with your doctor. Topamax has been found to be very helpful in breaking the cycle of headache. Also make sure you eat on time, maintain hydration and sleep well.
Hope this helps!
