OT: Headaches

Debbie on My Blog - Fri, June 20 2008

I have been having these pressure headaches for about two weeks. I've noticed that I seem to get them with the change in weather pressure. Am I the only one suffering here?!

The headache I have now has been with me since this morning..no, not a hangover. My daughter was complaining about her hear hurting last week.

Asprin does nothing, Tylenol dulls it but Advil seems to do the best. I'm just tired of having a headache! I suppose I could have some sort of head congestion and I would take an allergy pill if I had one, but I don't. Maybe I have Benedryl. I'll have to look. I always keep some in case Hoovie gets stung by a bee.

I'm just curious if anyone else gets these headaches when there is a pressure change.

You're not alone!

Benedryl knocks me on my butt, so I've been trying different allergy meds that contain antihistamines. Thus far, 1 Zyrtec + 4 Advil works best.

Oh yes! I know exactly what you are talking about. I'm not as bad as my husband--he gets em bad, but those low-pressure fronts do it to me, too. I take Advil for it and I'm on daily allergy meds anyway. The allergy pill might be a good idea bc it does seem like it's worse when my allergies have my sinuses all clogged.

I'm with ya. I couldn't figure out if it was my allergies or a pressure headache. Either way I've been taking 2 tylenol 8 hrs. a day for over a week now.

ME TOO!!!! I have been having the same thing on and off since about two weeks before Memorial Day. That weekend, I had full blown migraines, which I NEVER get, it was awful! It was a little better, then came back this week, so you are NOT alone, Debbie!!!

Oh, also, the only thing that works for me is Advil Cold and Sinus. You have to get it from behind the Pharmacy, of course, and I have been buying my maximum (legal) limit every week since it all started!!

Yep, it's behind the counter, because that has the ingredient that dirtbags use to make meth....so nice that we have to be inconvenienced, huh? LOL. I always get the generic Walgreens or CVS brand, it's the same thing. You can buy a larger pack of the Advil brand at Sam's Club, too, at their Pharmacy. Hope you feel better! I'm about to go take another dose right now, matter of fact!My eyes feel like they are throbbing again!!!!

I know! It's right behind my eyes... I'm going to bed.

I've been having a headache behind my left eye for the last couple of weeks, but I thought it was because I hit myself in the eye with a hammer on 6/1. Maybe it's just the weather.

Maybe I need to give those Advil cold sinus things a try. I snapped at a co-worker lastnight my headache got so bad. He's almost 40 yrs old and wants to behave like an attention starved 4 yr old. You'd have thought after hearing me say "I have a headache" at least 4 times he would have clued in. No such luck.

Hit yourself with a hammer??! Maybe it's the weather, maybe you have a concussion!? Silly girl.
