Are These Migraines? Or Is It Something Worse?
Posted: 11-25-04 12:59pm

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
I get these terrible pains above my right eye, in the sinus, and even behind the eye. Light makes me cringe with pain when this happens, and as soon as a loud sound hits, my entire head is throbbing.

Last night in particular, I was having the pain behind my eye. Then our parrot, mocha, decided to start screaming my name. Boom. Head pain. I decided to go to bed early, which is rare for me, so at about 9:00 I went in my room. I let my ferret out to play, and the bell on her colour pounded sound into my ears. I tried to listen to my music, that resulted in me almost vomitting from the pain in my head.

I laid in my bed, and the glow-in-the-dark frogs I have on my walls and fan even hurt my eyes. I couldn't look at my glow-in-the-dark clock or my regular red-light digital clock. I had to take something for the nausea, and put a cool damp cloth over my eyes.

I still have a small headache this morning... Are these migraines?

Thanks a ton, I really would appreciate all the advice I can get.

I am not a doc, just a mom who has migraines and 2 teens who have them.....

Sure sounds like a migraine to me! Sorry it sounds really awful! I also have lots of sinus problems and mine can start with that pain in the sinus area, too.

The light and noise making things worse, almost like they are magnified, as well as one sided pain seem pretty typical for migraine. Hope you can find something to help!

Chelidonium, sang can are a couple of excellent homeopathic medicines good to get rid of the migraine attacks which start on the right side of the head and spread to whole of the head.
