Headache 🤕

[Hali12]

Good morning woke up with severe headache again. I don’t know if the Med neurontin is actually helping or just puts me to sleep and I wake up with even worse headache 🤕. I’m hoping the neurologist will know what to do when I call them today. My hubby whom I love ❤️ dearly keeps telling stop thinking 🤔 about or stressing over it. It’s kind of hard when I can function yet alone concentrate. Please keep me in your prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤕🤕

Hi,

Your hubby is right, the more you stress the worse it becomes. But as we all know easy to say, not easy to do!

Good luck.

Hi Huma

Hope you start to feel a bit better soon. Some meds have a bedding in period and I have felt a bit worse before it gets better. Stressing less is easy to say but hard to do. I use nostril breathing from yoga. Copied this off the web.

Breathing in and out through alternate nostrils is called Nadi Sodhana in Yoga. This famous practice is good for the overall relaxation of your body. Breathe in through your left nostril while you cover the right nostril, and breathe out through your right nostril while you cover the left nostril. Repeat vice versa to treat your headache.

This helps me. As does the accupressure point in this YouTube video. If nothing else they are good relaxation techniques. Hope you feel better soon.

Headaches are the worst. Hopefully, your neurologist will be of some help. Praying you get relief soon.

Dear Hali12, why can't you get help with those headaches? You are with a Neuro. I was only with a Neuro for my GCA, never a Rheumy. I would've thought a Neuro could/would fix those headaches for you? Ongoing prayers for you. xxxx
