my husband and his head - Headaches & Migraines Message Board

HI,

My husband went in for an MRI today. When I first found out the dr. wrote a prescription for an MRI, I thought the worst. but, the hubby said it is usually to rule out anything more serious--
Last wed., he had a sharp, stabbing pain in left side of head, near temple. It lasted for a 45-60 seconds (scared me to death!!!) for the next couple days he had a throbbing headache, but not a severe. Up until now, he gets a headache off and on--tylenol seems to help. Anyway, I guess I am a big worrier, we have a 5 month old girl and I worry about him having a major issue like a mass or an aneurysm and not being around for her. He doesn't have any symptoms such as blurred vision, sensitivities to light, dizziness or vomiting, but I always think the worse. In the past, he has gotten the occasional headaches, and I never worried. But, this is the longest he has had this headache! Anyway, thanks for listening to me --has anyone else experienced similar symptoms?

I'm 16, I have had a migrane headache straight for a month now. The pain goes away on and off and at the beggining I got REAL dizzy, eye pains, pains everywhere. Saw lights, still do, sparks, and all that stuff. Plus I had a sinus infection, still have a little bit. It's all from stress for me. I also got a MRI just incase. I wouldn't worry. If it's a tumor or something he would be throwing up and have FEVER's. Stay chill, peace.
