Headache

Hi,
I have been getting headaches which have been very painful and tablets will not stop the pain. However recently I have had headaches constantly on the left hand side of my head, a stabbing pain.
I Have been gettin this every day for about a week now and it is constantly on and off all day.
During the last few days I have felt very weak and faint and my headaches have been mor painful.
I have been to the doctors and they gave me some tablets saying I have a migraine however these tablets do not help at all and I still get the pain.
Does anyone know what I should do or why this is happening?
Thank you Abi

Re: Headache

This is not normal the symptoms you are displaying are typical of a migraine, however what your doctor has given you has not helped so go back to him/her and say that you still have the same symptoms and the tablets you have been given are not helping. Further investigation is urgently required like a brain scan to see what is going on. Don’t put it off phone ASAP and ask for an urgent appointment

Re: Headache

Abi,
I'm new to the board and so Happy I found some information on Migraine headaches.
My Neurologist is under treating me and when I got my medical information the wording was terrible.
Why is it that doctors under treat migraines for just a plain old headache.
I was very sick,vomiting, blurred vision, and had a numbness going down my left arm.
I have had migraine that were treated by a wonderful neurologist doctor until he left the practice to teach at a college and hospital.
Let's hope I get to find a good neurologist that will treat me the way I was treated before.
As the saying goes why fix something that is not broken.

Re: Headache

Hi,
Thanks for replying!
Is there a possibility that I may need glasses?

Just trying to think of all the possibilities!
Thank you
