does anyone go there. who is your doctor.i am 22yrs old and have headaches for 1-1/2 years. one day i turned my head,heard a loud crack,left arm went numb. went right to the er room, had an x-ray. they told me my neck went into a spasam. go home use heat and ice. well it really never felt the same and about 2 weeks after that these headaches started. started taking ultram until they got so bad thats when i went to two neuros up here in new jersey. of course they did not help. i had every test like everyone else did. nothing showed up. started taking percocet. now in between i went to thomas jeff and saw dr ashke****. he thought i had cervical headaches. i have been with him for 7 months now. i get this weird feeling in my face,nose and teeth . a freezing cold feeling coming from the inside out. my neck and my entire head hurts. alot of pressure. he tried gabapentan.nortriptiline,lyricA,mexiliti ne,and so many more. nothing helped. had lidocaine shots in neck also. hospitalized three times. i am there right now. first time tried thorizine drip for two days,nothing. second time lidocaine and depacon drip. nothing. was there for two weeks. then he sent me to dr zhou pain management in phila. had the nerve injections into the cervical spine. he told me if i didnt get any relief within 14 days, then they were not cervical headaches. well of course they did not work. i went to the er room at thomas jefferson on the 16th of oct and was admitted . my doctor is away so dr young admitted me. they now tell me i have new daily persistent headaches. they started me on a low dose of dhe 0.2 and they up it every day. they just started me on zyprexa, just until monday the 22nd. from what i have read about ndph,no one gets rid of them. i am so scared that i will be like this for the rest of my life. so far i havent felt any improvement. they also have to get me off the percocet i have been taking. 10 to 12 per day. 10mg. i just want to stop the pain. they made me sign a contract that i would not take any more percocet when i go home or they will drop me as their patient. i also have to see them once a week for a while when i get out and give them a urine sample. i saw that andwoo has been to thomas jefferson. do you still go there? if so who is your doctor? have you ever been hospitalized there? what meds have you tried? how are you doing now? i am so so afraid.
