headache with activity

I have been getting headaches anytime I vacuum, sweep, or mop or do any physical activity or exercise which is new. I am on Edecrin 100mg daily and Pindolol 2.5mg 2x daily. My physician just increased the edecrin and stated I did not need an ACE inhibitor at this time. I checked my bp today after vacuuming and it is 123/93. The headache feels like migraines. Any suggestions?

no, it doesn't. I think it's just a side effect of Edecrin.

Does your head pound when you climb stairs?  If your head is pounding, it may be that your neck is out of alignment.  This can be serious in that it can cut off the blood supply to your head by pinching the main artery.  If this is happening, you should see a chiropractic to realign your neck.
