I don't know what is causing this headache but it's killing me. it's RIGHT behind my eyes... mostly behind my right eye and in the back of my head. it's actually messing with my vision a little bit. I took some ibuprofen but so far it's not helping.
any ideas on what else I can try to get rid of it?
If it's really that uncomfortable, and the usual treatments don't dent it, you should go to the ER. Especially as it is affecting your vision.
well I know what's causing it... as I get this headache every month if you get my drift lol
I'm going to try a cup of coffee and see if the caffiene helps
Try something for your sinuses you can take that along with motrin it usually has tylenol.
Got it!! You might try pregnancy again ;)Quote:

This works for me sometimes and my friend about freaked out when I tried it on her and it worked. It may not work on everyone though.
yeah the pain behind my eye has subsided a bit since I laid down for about 5 minutes with my eyes closed now it's just the back of my head. but I'm having a spiced chai tea and see if that makes me feel any better (a little caffiene)
I will try the pressure point thing too. does it matter which hand I do it on?
and I will take something for my sinuses too as I have been having some congestion issues
Grace... that's one suggestion I won't be trying again just yet :p lol
My daughter had such a bad headache at school last thursday I had to take her some motrin, that an something for sinuses finally helped.
well I don't know what specifically helped or if it was the fact that I was thinking of these methods instead of my headache but it's much better than it was. It's still there but the stabbing pain is gone.
I was afraid she was getting the swine flu or something the headache was so bad. I think she is just under a lot of pressure right now. She is trying to get into the Air Force Academy and there is a lot of pressure. She is broken out pretty bad now too.
Oh yeah... stress can give the worst headachesQuote:
