Migraine Headaches Support Group
Migraine is a neurological disease, of which the most common symptom is an intense and disabling episodic headache. Migraine headaches are usually characterized by severe pain on one or both sides of the head and are often accompanied by photophobia (hypersensitivity to light), phonophobia (hypersensitivity to sound) and nausea.
For the past 2-3 weeks I have been getting headaches around the same time of day between 5-7 pm. I used to be able to sleep off the pain but this is no longer working. The pain is in the lower head near neck. I have severe pressure in my eyes. I am trying not to take pain relievers everyday but the pain and pressure in my head is disrupting my life. I can't even sleep with a headache. I do not vomit or get any sort of paralysis, blurred vision or slurred speech from my headache. I frequently press on the temples and my corners of my eyes trying to relieve pressure. I am in a very bad mood a majority of the time and am starting to get depressed over this. I dont know if this is a migraine, stress or what.

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
They could be severe tension headaches resulting from neck problems.
While you're waiting for your doctor appointment, try and watch how your posture is during the day. Or check out if your monitor is at the correct angle for your head. Sometimes ergonomics can be the culprit.
