Last count 34K, but I've been getting headaches almost every other day? I don't know if it is my allergies or weather??? Tylenol helps most of the time. Sometimes I will go to bed with one and wake up with it...

Does anyone else suffer from headaches? Ice packs and Tylenol help 99% of the time.

There are so many reasons for headaches.....you need to find out why. Allergies, stress, sinuses, medication side effects, muscle tension, dehydration, eye strain, hangovers (lol), etc...

If Tylenol and ice helps, at least you know how to get rid of them. Most are not that lucky. Finding out the cause will help.

My problem really comes at night when I can not take Tylenol so close to my Promacta. So I end up with an ice pack then wake up with it and wait for Tylenol to kick in and most of the time I have to take Xanax as well to get rid of it before work.

Told them again last week with CBC 58k. No change in pred and she wasn't worried about them. Since they go away with medication and not daily.

Amberyard ,
Please, by no means am I trying to scare you ,

but I had 2 Yrs of a mild brain bleed & headaches ,
Last year Oct- '13 I had to have Hematoma removed Brain Surgery ,
Have you had a CAT Scan ?? it may be necessary to see a Neurologist if just to rule out
a brain bleed .
I also have Lupus , maybe that was the bigger factor,
Again... chances are Low you suffer from same affliction ,
but i would be in great remorse , if I did not explain why I show concern for the Headaches .
THANK YOU
