I underwent a huge life change with
marriage, moving out of state and looking
for a new job. Around that same time I
started having headaches. Not just any
headache, but a throbbing pain right below
the crown of my head. It feels like a
constant dull ache. Sometimes I feel
sharp pains in my head as well. I had a
mri done, and nothing. They said it was
stress. However, I am not convinced and
would love some feedback.

Hello,
i have had a similar experience. I went
through a hard time (done with college,
moved to sacramento) and ended up with a
constant unexplained headache. Every
morning I am surprised I got through the
previous day dealing with the pain, and it
is like starting all over the next. Had
the mri, xrays, but nothing. My next
trip is to the dentist, have them look at
my wisdom teeth.
Anywho, it has become agoraphobia for me.
It is much easier to stay at home and
not aggrivate (spelling?) my head. Not
to mention the meds. Nuff said. I and
a zombie.
Do you feel dizzy or feelings of vertigo?
I have found that dramamine helps *a
little* but I only take it as prescribed.
Too much can make you hallucinate.
Have you got any news about your headache
ta might help me?
Thanks

What I am learning now is that regardless
of the cause, it is still a painful
ordeal. I have to find what works for me
when the onset is at its worse.
I am about to try painkillers or a
barbituate. What I am saying is if a
doctor say he/she will do nothing because
it is "just anxiety", then find someone
else. There is no reason to suffer.
Even if it is "all in your head".
We are the only ones who know what is
going on inside. We are the only ones
who can truly do something about it.
