Never Had a Headache Like This ... Any Suggestions ? Posted: 05-24-07 17:35pm
I have been having this headache now for
10 days now. I recently moved to a new
place where i did nearly all the heavy
lifting by myself. When i was done my
back hurt really bad but i thought it was
just because i had not done anything like
that for a while. 2 days later i woke up
with a headache kind behind my eyes which
hurt more when bending over or shaking my
head. Well, 10 days have gone by and the
headache is still there. Its no longer
behind my eyes, nor does it hurt when
sitting around. the only time it bothers
me is when i shake/nod my head. the pain
is in the back/top of the head. I have
noticed my neck and shoulders are tight
and stiff feeling and my back a little as
well. I went to the doctor and he gave me
some antibiotics and decongestants to see
if that does it. I have taken them for 3
days now and it doesnt seem to be helping
much. overall the headache doesnt affect
me, infact i dont notice it much unless i
make sudden movements with my head (mostly
up/down nodding). i have had people
mention sinuses, eye strain, allergies,
meningitis, herniated disc, tension
headache, etc... Any suggestions or
personal experience with this type of
thing?

I'm brand-new here, but an old hand at
head pain (50 years of it). I hope by now
you're better. I'd say get a massage, or
see a chiropractor to relieve the neck
& shoulder tension.
