Morphine is natoriuos for causing headaches.  Levequin is a very strong fast acting antibiotic and usually causes upset atomaches if anything. And phenergan is an antiemetic to stop vomiting.     I would say the morphine on top of little sleep plus chiaru would explain the head.   I ask for dilaudid as it is one of the few narcotics that don't cause more headaches.  This makes me look drug seeking but hey I know myself well enough to not won't more pain from pain relief meds.......



The levequin should wipe out the UTI fast.  I really hope u feel better soon.   Keep me posted

Hi! I had liquid morphine in the hospital for severe abdominal pain 2 months ago, the next day after I had slept the morphine off my head literally was the most painfull ever!!! I couldn't talk, move or even look up, some one could have wacked a hammer to my head and it wouldn't have phased me.... Anyway you get the point but what I'm trying to say is that I suffered a hudge morphine come down and the headache was because of that.

i'm a little confused....first, why did you go to the er for a uti instead of your pcp?  that aside, you're headache could be related to your medication, but it could also just be a chiari h/a that has gone full blown and now you are stressing out over it and that will make it worse!  just try to calm yourself down a bit.  go lay on your bed with a heating pad on the back of your head and close your eyes for a bit. take some nice, deep, long breaths and see if that helps!  hope it does!
