    Hi Toria yes....I've had them for 3 years! Tension headaches like a elastic band around my head and going into my eyes and radiates at the back of my head!

    I'm having pyschio for it and it helps

    It's infuriating; paracetamol is one of my best friends. I think it is somewhat related to what I eat and how I sleep, even the position I sleep in -- sometimes it's like what they call a cervical headache, related to the neck.

    Do you have tinnitus that acts up in relation to it? Might be linked to cervical degeneration and/or teeth grinding. Sigh, pressing on!

      Do you take meds for them? Do you think you might be having rebound headaches?

    Hi Toria,

    I am in the US midwest, and I have had migraine off and on (mostly on) for the last 10 days.

    Weather is a big trigger for me... humidity, and heat, and changing pressure.

    Also hormone changes.

    Also stress.

    If it was aura and headache (like it used to be) I could get by. But the past couple of years, I also ...

    lose my appetite

    get very anxious

    have all-over pain ( not just head)

    insomnia

    heightened senses (smell/taste/touch/hearing)

    it's awful.

    What other symptoms do you get?
