Headaches Everyday!!! Posted: 12-17-03 22:42pm
For the past year or two, maybe more, i've
been getting headaches a lot. This year
it's been like basically everyday. I wake
up with a headache, then it just gets
worse through out the day. I've taken
medicine in morning but doesnt help. I've
tried sinus headache, tension headache
pills. I've even tried caffeine pills
seeing if I was in withdrawl from pepsi.
I take naps after school, but that doesn't
help, it just makes me feel drowsy. I get
enough sleep, and I eat enough. I eat all
3 meals. Even I ate a lot on pizza day,
4pieces, I still got one. These headaches
feel so bad sometimes, like a ring around
my head. Most of the pain is above my
eyes. I've even went to get glasses, no
help. I've went home a few times cuz they
got so bad. I dont feel like going to the
doctor's cuz I dont want to get some crap
and have to keep going back. Thanks guys
for reading this.

I know how annoying doctors are, but you
should really be seen.
I don't know how old you are, good for
you you didn't say how old you are, but my
13 year old brother did the same thing.
He was always real active or so we
thought, but he just couldn't shake these
headaches. He had high blood pressure
from a defective valve in his heart. He
did have to have heart surgery, but he is
doing great now! He feels better than he
has ever felt in his life. My advice to
you would be to talk openly (if you can)
with your parents, and then go see a
doctor that you like.
Good luck, and best wishes for a pain free
new year.

I think that you need to see a doctor.
There may be something serious wrong.....
Pain is your bodys way of talking to
you...Please listen to it and get seen. I
get migrains and know how bad they can
leave you feeling... But I cant imagine
not going, and finding out down the line
that something serious is wrong, and that
things could be prevented...
Hope you feel better...

Have your ever been to a chiropractor? I
have suffered my entire life from
headaches (and migraines). The one thing
that has helped the most is getting my
neck and back adjusted by a chiropractor.
I know there is a lot of controversy
surrounding chiropracts right now, but
look for a doctor who uses the "activator"
method. The doctor then uses a small
springloaded pen like device that applies
a controlled pressure to the area that
needs adjusting. A good chiropractor
will explain as s/he goes. Give it shot!
My Dr. Has saved me months of pain and
thousands of pills.
