Headache

[greenfairy43]

Hi, I'm still a newbie to all this, but I find I get a really bad headache after the first couple of reps/runs. It tends to ease off a bit after a while but it's pretty unpleasant. Does anybody else find this happens to them?

Hello

What part of your head do you get it, I'm thinking it could be a muscle thing. Maybe you should get it checked by a doctor.

It eases off again after a few minutes. I noticed it again this morning, but I ran with a thinner Buff round my head which got less hot, which helped I think.

Are you well hydrated?.........2-3 litres per day, running or not.

So, I went to see a GP about this after the headaches became much much worse, who unknown to me referred me for a 2 week wait appointment with a neurologist. Turns out I have exertion induced migraine. No running for me for a while 😭
