Your headache

Posted By: Migraine sufferer on 2006-02-26

That does not sound like my migraines, but that is not to say that it isn't one. With the hand tingling and neck stiffness, well, let me just say, I would go to the hospital just to be sure what was going on. Just my opinion, but you don't seem to be in any condition to type, let alone live, if it were me, I'd go.

My Headache

Did anyone ever work three jobs just to try to make it as an MT?  I have an office job during the day (NOT MT) work and I work as an IC and I just got a job working part time for another national.  Until my speed work catches up with my accuracy what I'm I suppose to do?  I'm so tired and so frustrated and i refuse to quit as I enjoy the MT work but I'm so tired...


Does anyone who has experience have any advice?


Wow what a headache
I was on a good Account and my company lost the account so I started a new job and my line count went from 800 in six hours to a 100 today.... I could not understand the dictators at all.... ugh
Rebound Headache
A couple of things.  Do you take hormone pills, use hormone patches or take injections?  Also, has your doctor or are you keeping track of your blood pressure.  My doctor once thought that I was having rebound headaches from a narcotic medication that I was taking - as it turned out it was due to taking Premarin and this causing my blood pressure to spike.  The first headache sent me to the emergency room - now we know it is my blood pressure and I take two meds for that (down from 5) and this has helped - clonidine, especially.  Also have a pheochromacytoma which is located in my lungs (can't resect) - and this causes me to have headaches at times, as well.  I have found that fiorinal with codeine is the only thing that suppresses these headaches - if I take it within about 15-20 minutes after I feel one coming on.  Also multiple chemical sensitivities can cause this type of headache.  I would check with another doctor - a rebound headache shouldn't last that long.
i had a headache for seven months
they have all of these medications for migraines, but tension headaches go unnoticed.  so, after seven months of what i thought was an untreatable headache (aside from the toxic levels of motrin i was taking), i went to see my doc.  he started me on Mobic and Zanaflex and, wow, no more headaches.  the first day was like heaven, what a relief.  i had forgotten what normal felt like.  now, maybe only one to two headaches a week instead of daily.  talk to your doc.  this is a really good combination for me.  hope this helps --- feel better soon. 
Oh my goodness!!!! The headache clinic
setting, but I elected not to do it. My insurance would not cover it after the study, and it would be about $2000 per year, about 30 injections every three months - I thought I'd try another route first. Wow. I really hope that you get relief. How interesting to transcribe for a headache clinic. I would love to hear those reports.
I believe you are my QA headache -- English degree -- uh la la nm

Vista gave me a headache yesterday

So I have to vent about my first serious problem that I had with Windows Vista (I won't bother mentioning the little things). We all had to uninstall and upgrade a program for work this week in order to continue working properly, which sounds pretty easy. But noooooo. I couldn't do either, and I spent hours on the computer trying to figure it out yesterday. I didn't get any work done! Finally my wonderful hubby came home from work (who happens to be my own computer geek) and after 1 hour got everything running for me.


The problem? VISTA. Apparently other Vista users have had a similar error message that is somehow triggered by Adobe Acrobat 8 (which stopped working yesterday). It was blocking my ability to uninstall and upgrade my particular program. Nevermind that I tried uninstalling some other useless stuff on my computer with great success just to make sure I wasn't crazy. I NEVER would have figured out that one on my own. Who knew? Once again Vista is stupid, stupid, stupid, and it makes me want to throw things.


I cannot wait until the new Windows comes out, whenever that will be. I hope it is soon because I am upgrading the first day it is available. Any one else have some good stories about how Vista has ruined your working day?


I have that headache too! Dontcha luv typing with a brain ache?!
I take silver from GNC. Try it.
I agree. Do you remember the 1970s with a 70% tax rate? Gives me a headache... nm

Well I have a chronically stuffed up head, irritated throat and headache and I am getting sick of
it. Dont know if it is allergies or sinuses. I dont want to be taking antibiotics because mostly they dont help but I wish I knew what to use to help this. It gets old and tiresome. My throat feels sore and hurts. I always sound like I have a cold and I dont.
My husband is sensitive to smells, he takes Sudafed Sinus which helps him with the headache
I have sensitivity problems too but like you I never know what is going to set me off, I don't get headaches though, I get hives and chills, real fun. Luckily it only happens about once a year and its been about 3 years since my last episode.
