Continual headaches every day ? Really painful! Thanks (: long description but please readd :)?
Okay, so I have had a headache for almost two years! It has been an everyday headache that is constant pain pretty much. Medicine rarely will help. Yes, I do have a history of migraines, but this is definitely not a migraine! My doctor didn't quite know and put me on a few medicines. They didn't help. He thought that maybe I had a sinus infection so he pushed for my insurance to let me go get a CT Scan of my head but all came back normal so we know I don't have any tumors...as of then at least. It can range from being just a nuisance to a really bad headache. I am a 14 and a female. Also I get light-headed a lot and have little "black-outs" My vision will go all black for about 2 seconds then fade back it happens a lot. It can happen every couple of days to multiple times in ONE day! got an MRI recently and nothing showed up, again. We thought it might have been a sinus infection we missed on the CT scan but thats not true anymore. I am so clueless. I went to Children's hospital of Pennsylvania on January 28th. I am going back March 7th and probably ever 4 weeks from there on until we find a treatement that works. I went and was put on 400 mg riboflavin daily, 3 quarts of solid water (not including other beverages) , handful of leafy greens every day, 500mg naproxen, and i believe something else. but I have kept a headache journal since that day and haven't found a pattern. I tried the diet they gave me but didn't help at all. Any ideas? I am seeing the head of neurology this time.

Oh!!!! and!! they thought it was stress so they put me on some medicine and I almost went into a coma from it and it was the lowest dosage (10MG) so I shouldn't have had this bad of side affects, apparently I was sleeping like I was in a Coma. Slept 23 hours straight, then would wake up every 30 minutes and crash for a couple more hours.

Am I going to need an EEG? What do you think is wrong?

Answers:

There is something causing this and only tests and time will be able to tell.
With the little blackouts, I was having those when I would have cluster headaches. They would come and go, but it would be persistent...intense pain for a couple minutes, and loss of vision and experiencing dizziness. In a couple minutes I'd just have a headache and the rest would be gone, but within a few more minutes, I'd get some more...on and on for about an hour or so, and then I would have a headache constantly outside of those. They took me off caffeine, they put me on caffeine, they gave me this medication and that medication, they ran this test and that test and was never able to find out what was wrong.

Now I don't have that problem anymore, and it's about 10 or so years later.
