Morning Casper6.....I get headache a lot. I ho to God with them sometimes and I wake up with them sometimes.

I found out that I do have raised blood pressure, have you had yours checked recently.

I had a massive flare in November 2018 and the worst thing aside from jaundice was the headache. I have been given blood pressure medication, but they have not found the cause of the blood pressure. I feel it's to do with the liver, but gp and consultant is not listening.

Please get the blood pressure checked and make sure you mention the headache to your consultant x

Take care.

Thanks for that. I've just been on a fairly long walk and do feel a bit better. I was exercising every day until I started to feel so tired but need to get back into it I've let it all get me down thinking on the dark side . Hope you are well now .
