I often feel sick. Like I live nearly everyday with some sort of headache pain. Lots of times I feel sick constantly. Like on some days when I don't wake up with a headache, I actually feel like I've got the flu. I feel heavy, stiff, the muscles in my legs ache. I'm always sick one way or another. It has become just a battle between which will bother me the most. Sometimes I have such acute pain in my left leg that moves from the tips of my toes to the top of my thigh above the inside of my knee. The past month I've had a lot of congestion. I woke up strangling on phlegm in my throat last week. And my eyes are always watery. When I was younger I used to wear a lot of eye make-up. But my eyes water so much and I would inevitably smudge it. When I lay my head down...whatever eye is closest to the pillow tears will stream from it.
I was in the doctors office a month ago and he said it looked like I was having some kind of allergy attack cause my eye was red in some way. But I wasn't congested and had probably a mild headache that day.
I don't know. I feel like my doctor thinks I'm a hypochondriac to be honest. He's always been good to me. But I can't make him understand somehow that I don't feel "GOOD" that often. It's like I live every day with a flu-like illness. I don't know. lol.
But I do have the hot flashes and then I'll get the chills. I can't find a happy medium in tempature. I sweat when my skin is cold--that awful clammy feeling. But its my neck that hurts...not my spine.
I feel insane. I don't know. But I woke up again with another headache this morning. My Birthday is tomorrow LOL and I just hope I don't feel to bad then =)
I just began tracking my migraines on here. I want to figure out. I'd like to know more--if you want you can add me as a friend =)

I too have migrains that I swear are caused by sinus infections, although I know I cannot have consistant infections, when I get a Z pac or other such meds, I feel better for a short while. Then it starts all over again. With the hot flashes, spine pain and diariara that I have had for months, I wonder if I really do have an infection that no one has seen. I do have a bent nasal septum that causes me not to be able to have regular discharge from the front of my sinus. But I do get a lot of discharge down my throat which makes my stomach upset and makes everything worse. Do you have any other symptoms?
