Constant pressure in my head

[sweetpea-123]

I have developed chronic headaches over recent months. I have a constant feeling of pressure in my head. It is very debilitating. Along with that I have chronic pain..which is a long story, suffice to say I have had two back surgeries. This additional pain is almost unbearable. I have had two occipital nerve blocks for my headaches..the most recent was a few days ago. I fainted due to the severity of pain. Since then I feel very queasy and tired. Like many in this situation I feel hopeless at times..dont know where to turn. Does anyone have any suggestions. Also is it normal to be so Queasy? I cant get through to the nurse.

When did you last see your Doctor or a Consultant?

I would keep pushing Doctor on this or even consider going to A&E - with severe head pain.

Like Mary said, go to a&e dont wait for a nurse.

Sweetpea - please keep us updated.

What investigations have you had - scans and blood tests? CT scan, MRI scan ?? Have you been seen by various Consultants? What diagnosis and prognosis ?? Ask for Diagnosis.

Do go to A&E.

I developed headaches that have worsen over 6 weeks. My neurologist thinks it's in my neck. Also causing signs of carpal tunnel but test was mild. That's why we are doing a neck MRI. Best of luck

A lot if headache can come from the neck.

I hope you get it sorted and keep us updated.

Thanks for all your replies. I have had head and neck mri..and ct..there are two discs bulging in neck. It's been so scary at times.

Please get head pain investigated. If still scarey go to A&E. I have very severe neck joint problems. Has anyone told you that all the symptoms are caused by the bulging discs? Are you still being investigated? If the pain has eased does that mean the treatment was successful.
