Hello, any help on the following will be
greatly appreciated.
I am a 28 year old male in good health and
I work in a busy it role.
About 6 months ago I went to bed and had a
'sudden' strange feeling of what I can
only describe as pressure in my head.
This feeling/headache has not gone away,
it has been constantly there for the last
6 months, it does tend to get worse when I
am busy/stressed.
My doctor said it was because of the work
I do. In short I corrected my posture,
removed caffeine from my diet, tried a few
drugs (amitriptlyne and then a beta
blocker) none of which made any
difference. I then saw a specialist who
said he thought I was ok and to come back
in a few months (said I could have a mri
scan to put my mind at rest!).
It's such a strange feeling and it does
not stop me from physically doing
anything, although if I shake my head from
side to side I get a feeling like a very
mild crmap around my brain! This makes
it uncomfortable to go running.
I have also seen a specialist who
straightened my spine and relaxed my neck
muscles - all very nice but did not effect
this underlying issue. It is not a
headache as such as I can distinguish
between one of those and this feeling.
What can I do, help!!??!!

Check on-line for ces machines (cranial
electro.......... Stimulation) they're
small you use them say 1-2 times a day
while reading watching tv whatever &
they help alot of things, stress,
headaches, mood disorders, sleep problems
etc.
Also you should consider whether anything
had changed >> new work location
(even in same office) new heating/cooling,
new desk/chair, new computer, food
changes, new furniture (or bed?) at home,
anything??

Have you tried yoga or something like
that? Have you asked your Dr. About
migranes as their are a lot of good meds
out their now you might think of having an
mri or a cat scan to see if they show
anything.
What is a busy it role?
Sincerely,
