Hi everyone
Sorry to sound like cracked record but as the “ waking” headache enters its 6th year I’ve noticed a change .
The headache is still very intense around temples every morning when I wake but also strong pain behind bridge of nose like someone screwing from one side to the other .
No other sinus symptoms , no running nose, no mucus . Mouth is incredibly dry and use 2 zylimelts every night . Pretty sure I’m mouth breathing despite best intentions not to. Had a steroid nasal spray last year but made pain worse . Also used sterimar . tried many medications . Only thing that helped was 10mg of pred but that was for something else not head. Currently take hydroxy and 2.5mg pred .
Has anyone had any success with nasal strips or nose ring ?
I’ve been waiting 2 months for results of sleep apnea tests but I’m guessing they were ok . Due to have tele call with headache nurse maybe end of year .
Open to ANY suggestions of what I could try ?
Also forgot to say if I get up say at 3am and walk around the pain goes . If I then go back to bed the pain returns when I wake again so it’s like round 2 🤦♀️.
Thank you so much for reading appreciate this forum and all of you so much 🙏 xxx
ps. Checked humidity in room was normal
