Hi florian, Have you tried to take anything for it yet? If so how has your head reacted to it? Have you had a history of neck problems? A lot of people have had head pain in various places or...
Hi JS, Yes I got results and they are actually posted on another thread (topomax and poly-drug use). I have a lot of conversation on that one. My MRI, CT scan, and blood work all came back...

Hey Kathy109, So I tried Naproxyn (half of a 500mg) and it didnt make my pressure worse. It didnt make it better either but it's good news anyway. I still have not tried a muscle relaxer even though...
Hi, I wish rebound headaches was the problem. within the first two weeks of coming down with this thing I stopped taking anything at all. I noticed that everything was making it worse so I stopped. I...
