I have been having really bad headaches always feeling light headed since january i have graves disease and they thought it could have been my thyroid causing the issue so i got it checked and my thyroid levels and everything are fine.my blood pressure started to be high in about march or april so they put me on blood pressure medicine and even when my levels are normal i still have horrible headaches and feel light headed all the time,does anyone have any advice.

i have gotten a CT scan done and they found nothing wrong if that means anything.all these symptoms started after i woke up one day and my body was numb and ever since then i have had the headaches and light headedness and chest pain

Hi,

How are you?
In some patients with graves disease neurological symptoms like headache are observed. .
It occurs due to recurrent inflammation which can lead to cerebral venous thrombosis. Headache may be an early sign of cerebral venous thrombosis in patients with graves disease.
Please discuss this with your treating doctor as soon as possible. Take care!
