Whenever I am around fluorescent lights or really bright lights, my eyes get kind of blurry, and then I get a huge headache!! The place that I work at has fluorescent lights, and I hate it! Does this happen to anyone else around fluorescent lights?

I used to take ibuprofen... but I think I got used to it and now it doesn't work anymore. Then I started taking Excedrin Migraine Headache, that worked, but it was all gone and I got Execedrin Tension Headache, that didn't work as well (??). I recently went to the doctor and she prescribed me Maxalt 10. I haven't taken it yet, but I will let you know how it goes, ok?

doctors dont understand me
they have never prescribed any thing for me
i had a seizure once but supposedly thats ok (something a doctor said)
i still believe that, that is the reason for the headaches

Have you ever been to a neurologist?
