ViruRulez Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Are you sleeping well? ++ One of the main reasons of such acute headache is severe loss of sleep. I have had times when I have hardly slept more than 1-2 hours due to work and face such headache. But maybe Rajiv has already checked that out by some intensive sleeping.
akshayxyz Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 It must be migraines. I am suffering from migraines and seizures since childhood and their is no permamnent cure for migraines, just medicines to give temporary relief. I feel light migraines continuously everytime and sometimes get heavy nerve thumping headaches at that time I have to take pain killers. I have also suffered Classical migraines also called as Migraines with aura though it does not happen regularly, but i have suffered this condition 8-10 times in last 15 years. I first experienced this when I was 12 as I remember. Medicines didn't benefit much in this condition. Migraine with aura is very painful I tell you, It is like having slow death which I never actually get and it takes a long time to recover whenever I get it. If you do not have tumors or anything evident comes out through CT or MRI scan then go for EEG testing, it will tell you more about your nerves in brain which are minor things are responsible for these headaches. Consult if you can have Migraine with aura in future as you are having migraines now and take full treatment which will certainly reduce the possibility. It is really brave thing to live through pain for so many years. Why do not you share your experience about what all you tried? Btw, as Ravsinghravi mentioned, have you tried paranayam/yoga?

Btw' date=' as Ravsinghravi mentioned, have you tried paranayam/yoga?[/quote'] I have done all but no benefit..now i just take pain killers whenever it happens....it works in migraines but if it is Migraine with aura then nothing works how many meds you try..Migraine with aura has a process until it completes you wont be relieved and this process takes hours to finish... first i get aura in my eyes..that is first symptom that is gonna start now...then slowly i feel light headache starting with nausea, and then headache get stronger in an hour and nausea also take full effect...at this time I cant speak to any...it is so painful, just need to be alone with eyes closed. It goes for 3-5 hours and then starts vomiting intensively. Once I got 8-10 vomiting with little duration in between the vomits and this situation is worst. Head feels like it will be bombed...sensations of current going through the nerves and like going up and down in nerves. whenever it vomits, it feels nerves are gonna burst. Whenever i had in my stomach goes out..even single drop of water then vomiting stops....but nausea and pain will be still there for one day. The effect stays for 7-10 days and it feels heavy and like nerves are still shivering.
akshayxyz Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 ^@rkt I have no words for that kind of experience. For last couple of years I was carrying some pain in lower back and then last year I injured my left elbow. it was painful for couple of weeks ( affected sleep). And I stopped doing all the exercises, work as if I have approached death-bed. Feel so tiny in front of you. I am not in position to suggest you anything. But perhaps sometime you should consider taking complete off from your regular life for 2-3 months at least and go to some ashram where they practice yoga/pranayam etc.. (lifestyle stuff and not religious thing). Absolutely no work at all, just complete focus on trying natural ways to regulate/manage your condition. Complete change in diet, lifestyle and trying out various forms of yoga might reveal something about prevention (or reducing intensity/periodicity), if not complete cure.

The effect stays for 7-10 days and it feels heavy and like nerves are still shivering. 99% of cases related to migraines are psychosomatic. I am discounting that 1 % just to be on safer side. I have seen people's acute migraine being cured with Yoga, pranayam and in some cases Vipassana. I feel your pain but I have doubts whether medication can be an answer. I have knows cases where patients had become addicted to morphine injections and it had started losing its effect when they had to find other alternatives. Medication might provide an immediate relief, but you have to introspect what the "causes" really are. When you say you have done all, what have you done ?
rkt.india Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 In terms of medication, and I have also found that there is no full time cure for migraines through medications. Though i still have migraines but I have not got Migraine with aura for 3 years now and I suspect it is bound to happen very soon because it used to happen once or twice a year, and I start shivering every time i think of that feeling i will have to go through if it happens again.
ganeshran Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Could very well be brain tumor or cancer. Brain tumour is one disease you and your hero will never get :two_thumbs_up:
Pak_Forever Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 I get headaches all the time. Not migraine, but normal ones, been there for ages. A walk outside helps a lot in my case. Not sure if that would work for migraine though. You should definitely get tested, but don't worry about tumor or any other scary stuff. I know people who get consistent migraine and are free of those stuff.
Rajiv Posted May 28, 2011 Author Posted May 28, 2011 Thankfuly, there is no aura and I don't feel like throwing up but the pain is above lthe eft eye, and pulsating and it almost like a dance in surrounding areas. I read about Hemicrania continua, and one of the symptoms was nasal stuffiness. I have this problem from long time where I feel stuffed and pressure breathing when I move from hot to cold or vice versa ( getting out of a/c car to heat ). I need steam to relieve it or just wait it out I spoke to a doc and he said its not sinus.
