Snap, Crackle... Pop!

On Sunday the 3rd of June I happened to be bending down to pick up the cats' water dish. Not a singularly exciting event, I grant you. However, on this particular occasion the Fickle Claw of Fate decided to play a mean and dirty hand. As I made contact with the bowl there was a a ripping sound inside my head. The next thing I knew I was on the ( Read more... )

A hairy hole. With sweat on it.

Does cleaning the entire house count as 'taking it easy'?

Either way, I hope you don't experience these headaches anymore and get a million times better.

I have also had migraines since I was a child. And you know, the only person who ever seemed interested in hearing about them happened completely by accident. It's like you said, it's the same drill with the general practice doctors. But I was with my mother at the neurologist and she mentioned that both of us always have headaches during her exam and he started questioning me about where they were, what happened and he gave me a list of things that they prescribe. But he seemed really interested in how they arise, much more than the General Doctor who just tries to get me us all out of his office :/

But then my general doctor would *never* have referred me to a neurologist for a "headache" and yes, I think you should get them to refer you to a specialist. These sort of headaches you are having are excrutiating and they make you lose all sense of time, you just want to crawl into a hole where there is silence and darkness and no pain :(

The NHS is in a bit of a state at the moment. It takes a lot of work getting to see a general practitioner so I'm guessing that it's going to be a bit of a nightmare getting to see a specialist.

However, given how much pain I was in last week I need to get something sorted pretty sharpish.
