Bad Headache

I have had a really bad headache since yesterday afternoon ,and it just wont go away. I had the glucose tolerance test yesterday and was wondering if it had anything to do with that. I dont want to go to the doctor with just a sore head ,so let me know  if any of u other girls have the same problem and if so did u take anything to get rid of it.
Thanks

I take tylenol PM if I am home and can sleep, and just regular tylenol (both obviously as directed) for daily use. I get headaches fairly frequently and my Dr. ok'ed this.. Good luck and feel better!

I agree with Nikko, you should call your doctor. They might want to test your blood pressure.  

My allergies give me aweful headaches that Tyenol doesn't due much for.  Usually, I increase my water intake and use a nasal rinse and that helps those types of headaches.

but, you really should run it by your doctor, if for anything, a piece of mind.

It is possible that it was all that sugar. Unfortunately, if you have tried tylenol and it hasn't worked, then you should call the doctor. A bad headache can be a symptom of many things. Best to get it checked out.

I don't have any first hand advice, but I have heard that migranes can occur in pregnancy because of homrones and increased blood volume.  Perhaps you can give your doctor a call if you still have it....  Im hoping that since I am reading this late it has resolved for you...

I was having a very bad problem with headaches for a couple months during this pregnancy, and it would be only on one part of my head, I was scared to take tylenol or something to kill the pain, so I would drink something hot like hot chocolate milk and then go to sleep, when I wake up my headache would be gone.
try this and see if it works.
