Lately I've been having very painful headaches, almost on a daily basis... I have no idea what causes them... I read it could have something to do with anurisms or something... but I think I'd be dead by now... what are some other things that cause very painfull headaches? Sometimes I go a little numb and confused too.
i'd go to a doctor.. headaches can be caused by a lot of different things. diet, climate, hormones, stress, head trauma, illness, too much sleep, not enough sleep, lights, smoking, caffeine... just to name a few things.
Hmm... I've just checked off almost all of the above that could be factors... Yea, I'm in the works of going to the doctor.
Generally, headaches are caused by a lack of hydration or essential nutrition. How is your general health? Do you eat well, drink water, exercise? Do you smoke cigarettes, drink coffee? Recently quit drinking coffee? Caffeine withdrawal symptoms include headache, sometimes severe ones . Do you get plenty of fresh air? Ie, actually spend a reasonable amount of your time outside? What about your sleep patterns, etc? Like Boog said, headaches can be caused by a lot of different things. You might try ensuring the most common causes of headaches aren't the issue and then maybe see a doctor, or see a doctor right away.
I just recovered from a 20 hour migraine. Worst pain I've ever felt in my life. I've been getting them the better part of my whole life but they occur most frequently around Spring. This leads me to believe it's either allergies or something to do with the humidity and air pressure.
I feel your pain. I started a thread here a while back on the same thing. Since November I have been tormented with Migraines that would last for days. I am in pain almost all the time. I had hoped that with the warmer weather coming they would get better but they actually got worse. Had an MRI and CT both clean. Now they are testing me for lymes. It’s been months and they are still no closer to diagnosing me. You should definitely see a doctor. It might be a good idea to get your eyes examined as well. Eye strain can cause bad headaches and can be a trigger for Migraines.
Does any one know if it is possible to get both migraine and cluster headaches? I have a history of migraine headaches but recent have been getting headaches that are worse than migraine ( which I didn't think was possible ) and the pain is different. Hard to explain but it is more like pressure pushing out. The pain is beyond unbearable.
I get headaches alot when i have stuff with CARAMEL COLOURING in it (And many other do also i guess) www.healingwell.com/community?f=31&m=1710922 Almost everything that has this gives me headaches! (Stuff didnt used to have this garbage (NOT AS MUCH ANYWAY!!))
