Back in october i started getting headaches that were pretty constant, almost every day. I wear contacts and so people recommened i get my eyes cheked, i did and they were fine.
So i saw my doctor who thought that it may be a sinus headache (i've never had sinuses before). IT felt like pressure that ranged from the top of my forehead, sometimes right above/behind my eyebrows, and sometimes in my cheeks- though it didn't really hurt when it was in my cheeks, there was just a lot of pressure.
My doc put me on anti-biotics for a long time and as soon as i stoped they came back. I had 2 CAT scans done and my doc said they show sinus infections so i went to a specialist and HE said that my sinuses look fine and he's not convinced that they are from my sinuses... but he put me on some nasal spray to see if it helped.
So now, i don't get them as frequently but i find that i get a headache more when its raining or really humid/damp out. Motrine sinus/headache usually helps but not always, and i always need to take two.
Im just looking for any suggestions. Does it sound like sinuses? If so what can i do cause they haven't cleared up and its been a long time. Could it be other types of headaches?
Thanks to anybody who can help!
