Whew!!
Glad to hear it's "only" your sinuses!! I thought that was what it sounded like to me, but I'm no doctor. I am a bit of a hypochondriac though, that's why I didn't post til you saw your doctor--I always assume the worst for myself:o
I hope you feel better soon!!!
Glad to hear you got it sorted out, yes thats what I thought too, the old sinuses playing up, a course of antibiotics should hopefully do the trick. Hope you are feeling better soon!!!!!!:)
I still don't feel any worse (ie, no added symptoms) but this morning I woke up and I feel like someone is driving an ice pick into my temples. :( :(
Kimmy,
Did your Doctor check your BP also ? When's the last time you
had a complete physical? It this pain continues, I'd be sure the
Dr. knows the severity of the pain. Please forgive me if I'm
sounding like a Mom here, but pain that seems to hang around
forever, really needs to be checked out. Hope you're feeling
better soon. Liz.
She didn't check my BP this time, but it's always been low in the past. She checked my temperature, heart, lungs, eyes, nose, and ears and said they all looked good.
She did suggest that I take Advil too, so I'll do that tonight. If my head still hurts, I'm calling the doctor tomorrow.
Ramanth, I get sinus headaches all the time. They used to get so bad I'd go to the ER because I would be throwing up from the pain. You know what works wonders for me? Advil Cold and Sinus. Honestly - it's a life saver. Everybody who's tried it is amazed by how well and how quickly it works.
You should try it if you get any more sinus headaches. It has to be the Advil kind, NOT the Tylenol cold and sinus.
I have suffered from headaches since I was about 9 years old. We tried glasses. contacts, braces, retainers, and building things on my retainers to relieve pressure of my teeth in case I was grinding them. (which I wasn't)
So finally after all these years I finally saw my family doctor. (19 years- I am a bit of a self diagnoser especially since I went to Xray school!!!) :rolleyes:
And my dr said I have migraines. I knew I got headaches obviously but I never thought they were migraines b/c I hadn't been diagnosed nor am I usually light sensitive, nausaus, light headed or dizzy etc. So now my dr. has me on blood pressure medicine even tho I routinely am hypotensive, thinking that if he can lower the pressure in my head, it will reduce the headaches.
And has told me to take Aleve. He gave me some samples of Axert which really helps but it is EXPENSIVE!!! A co-worker told me that for 6 pills they were $98!!! :eek:
So I only take it when I get a reallllllyyyy bad one. Just a couple weeks ago, I had one so bad that I did throw up. :(
I hope you are feeling better Kimmy!!! ASAP!!
And I hope you get your keys from Andy!!! I bet he feels bad!! :p
Wow, a lot of you suffer... :( *HUGS*
Yep! Got my keys. And boy did he ever feel bad. He owes me. :D ;)Quote:
