Severe Pain, Result of Shedding of Tears. Posted: 09-13-03 20:56pm
Following a short burst of tears (we are
saying 20 secs to 1 min) I experience
instant severe pain and pressure behind
eye with veins bulging (more so with time)
and remaining visable there after. A
mild pain sometimes remains with the
visable bulging for hours or even into
following day. This is extending more
with time. I cannot afford to shed any
tears. I am not the type of person that
bottles up like this. I have had a
recent loss in family and cannot even
afford to express myself with tears due to
this, without this concern of long
lasting pain and trauma to self.
It doesn't take much, sometimes the mere
start of of tears will bring this on.
The pain is sharp and painful for the
first 1-15 seconds, and being able to stop
immediately does not excuse you from
aforementioned pressure pain that
follows.
I have no history what so ever of
headaches. I am 45. Help appreciated.

I get the same thing after I cry and it
usually occurs about five minutes into the
crying. Afterwards my head is pounding,
usually only on one side , and the area
behind my eyes it seems starts thumping,
no med. Work after I reach this point and
my eyes are extremely irritated as well.
I thought I was the only one ......Anybody
know what this is??????

I thought I was the only one with
headaches after I cry. I have had
migranes since I was 4 and I get them
really bad after I cry. Maybe what you
are having are migriness?

Following Up.... Posted: 09-23-03 11:47am
I will be going to have some tests
done...
Mri - head
and mr angiogram of head
i was referred to a decent neurologist and
that is what he would like done.
He is also running blood tests;
sed rate
ana
lyme antibodies
after ruling out potentials, I will at
least have peace of mind. It sure beats
ignoring something as sudden, long lasting
and painful as this.
I have a surgical date coming up for
simple fibroids, but in view of that is
wise for me to clear this ahead of time.
Prevention is the best medicine.
Will do an update posts after test
results!
For me the pain brought on by a few tears
is fairly new and building within the past
few years. Prior to that could wail
like a baby without any trauma. I was
brought up in a family where we were
taught it was healthy to show your
emotions.... We were taught that
holding in feelings can lead to illness.
With these headaches in mind that doesn't
seem to fit.
If I had had these since childhood I would
not be concerned. In fact if I had been
headache prone prior that would be
something to keep in mind. Neither is
the case, so I am checking this out.
