Hello...I am 25 yrs old, I am a smoker and I occasionally have a drink, literally occasionally, almost never....maybe once in 6 months....I have 4 children.....just to give a little background info...
My question is what could be causing these and what kind of doctor might I need to see about it???
The problem: I have migraines constantly....I usually get them suddenly, their very painfully excruciating,sometimes it affects my left side or just my right side or sometimes both.....when I get one, it can last anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks (minimum though have been known to last a lil longer rarely)...Everything affects it, light,sound,taste,smell, even me talking....they get so bad I cant hardly get out of bed and always end up vomiting before the night is over with... I have tried everything i can think of, medicines, massaging the sore spots, laying down in a dark quiet room sometimes helps it subside for a few minutes but does not take it away, taking a warm bath and soaking in it, i have tried heating pads, hot and cold washrags on my forehead, whatever else I can think of at the moment...nothing really really works.....
the only thing that helps it subside a little bit is excedrin migraine and pushing in on the very back middle of my head and i have to push in really really hard for it help at all and even then only helps for about 10 minutes.....
I also have neck,shoulder,back and knee pain really bad and some chest pain......
I have tried keeping a migraine journal but when they come on they hurt to bad for me to even think about why I might be getting one and when it finally goes away i cant remember what might have triggered it...
I also have some kind of problem with rolling my eyes, like literally its constant, imagine someone rolling their eyes and then imagine someone rolling their eyes right after another like constantly......i cant stop it and i dont know how i started it but sometimes it hurts my head but just gives me a headache not the migraine....
I also grind my teeth while i'm sleeping and sometimes i catch myself doing it when i'm awake and through the day and i cant stop it i dont know how....i got one of those teeth protecter thingys from wal-mart but i sleep with my mouth open and it generally doesnt stay in my mouth and i dont know how to stop sleeping with my mouth open cause i'm such a hard sleeper, apparently i also snore and talk in my sleep and thats probably why i cant keep mouth closed when i sleep....
History: almost my whole family has diabetes(father, uncles,aunts,grandma,etc...) my mother was a borderline diabetic, who also had COPD, Lupus, arthritis, hernias, ulcers, breast cancer, and numerous other things I cant remember the names of.....she died 6 years ago of a hiadel(dont know how to spell it) hernia outpatient surgery gone wrong.....
Can anyone plz help me?????
