Does anyone else get constant headaches and migraines almost every day and pain in their neck ...I've been to the doctor's all they do is check my eyes and ask me to turn my head from side to side ...I have pillows and ice bags for my head does anyone have any ideas ? I take painkillers sometimes too...relic

Hi, Relic. Have you seen a neurologist for anything spinal like a nerve pinch? The fact you can turn your head doesn't negate a nerve issue, either, sinc eit could be deeper in ----- or cranial --- or or or!


I'd suggest you alternate ice with warmth, and make a journal of your headaches' severity, frequency, and what you were doing when they began. SOmetimes the clues lie in those patterns. :-)


Hope that helped, and healing puma power to you!

No but check with your doctor. I just have pulsating nerves sometimes on my back. Hugs.

See a neurologist and/or a headache specialist.

You might want to look into seeing and ear specialist. If there is something going on deep down in your inner ear. It can cause extreme headaches. Everyone is different though.

Good morning Relic - I have been experiencing headaches that radiate from my mid back all the way toward and over the top of my head to my frontal area - they have been relentless. My neck pain has been extreme as well. It does affect my eyes - blurry and I am dizzy and off balance.

Glad you're going to see a neurologist. I went to see one who ordered an MRI for me and nothing showed up on the MRI which was good. I felt relieved that there wasn't something pathological on the MRI.

Yesterday , I went to my chiropractor who I haven't seen in awhile. After my adjustment my headache wasn't as severe and my dizzyness was better. Could be coincidence but I'll take it.

I'll be praying for you and look forward to an update on your appointment.

For today, hope you have a less painful, calm day. Warm hugs and love. xo

    Reality Check

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
