Has anyone had this experience? Last week 9/19 Wed, I took a Tramadol tablet. The next morning, I awoke with a throbbing occipital headache on the left side. It seems to be deep in the groove at the base of the skull. It seems to correspond with my pulse. It hurts to move my neck left and right. It started out intermittent in the mornings and then getting less intense as the day went on. Now it is constant. It is the 8th day. It woke me the other morning at 4 am throbbing and making me nauseous. From when it started to last night, I had felt like I was in a "fog" or tired just wanting to lie down. It seems like excitement or too much moving around will make it worse. Last night I had gotten some clarity. It was the first time I felt like I was clear minded and sharp. Today it is milder but still there. I went to primary doc on wed and he told me to take the meds prescribed for 5 days and if it returns after stopping it to call him and he'll run a cbc and sed rate. He put me on Mobic. I have had no visual disturbance, etc. I have read about other people having problems after taking Tramadol (headaches for a week).
Any ideas or experience with this type of headache.
