Eye pain

[Jayne68]

Does anyone wake up with bad headache and eyes that ache and feel very weak? Something new which has started, got to take tramadol 2x50mg to get out of bed now lol.

Always get anything new checked out, for me this is just all part of fibro I did have lots of tests to rule out other things though. x

Hi,

I suffer alot of eye pain and vision variations, recently specific headland (not general headache).

Gp not concerned (as ever

[Jayne68]

Perhaps I should get it checked out. But always have sinking feeling when I go to dr. I think may try optician first!

Hi Jayne68

I am so sorry to read that you are suffering in this way, and I sincerely hope that you can find the answers that you are looking for. I wake up most days with a headache and eye ache, and it has got worse since I have started using Pregabalin. So this is something that I will discuss with my Neurologist on my next visit.

Talking to your optician about this could be useful as my optician told me that Fibro can affect the eye muscle. However, if you get no joy from this I would definitely talk to your GP about it.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken

Thank you Ken your kind words are appreciated.

Yes but I find it is better (for me) to get out of bed as soon as I wake up, be very still and quiet until it lifted. Painkillers give me an hangover so taking them only postpones the pain.

I have had a bad head and dizziness for about 3 weeks. Been to GP couldn't find anything. Had a thorough eye test all clear. Ask for the digital retina screening, it looks right at the back of the eyes. They can tell a lot about your health from this

Thank you Maisie and Betty, I will go to optician but it difficult for me to get up at my own pace as three kids all with autism, but it's a nice thought. Perhaps one day ....... Hope you day today is as good as it can be.
