    I had had those with eye pain and sometimes it takes my neck and just there! Eventually it will go away and another symptom will show up

    Hi Carole,  I'm guessing you're in peri?

    I had awful headaches through Peri  they would last three long days and were so debilitating.  Eventually after a lot of putting up with it, I went back to the doctor and she gave me Sumatriptan which basically saved my life, it really helped me. 

    Make sure you are not anemic, this can cause awful headaches.  Also remember your B vitamins, they help.  Lavender oil helps and of course lots of water to keep hydrated.  Definitely get checked for your iron levels though, that's very important. 

    I do hope this helps a bit.  All the best.

    Ugh..I’m currently on my second day of a terrible  headache. I know that I’m probably having too much sugar and not enough water that is probably not helping me right now but I’m just in a really bummed out mood and feel like I need the sugar and coffee to keep functioning.  I’m hoping a good nights sleep tonight and that this headache goes away! Try not to worry  too much about it and keep in touch on here because we all have symptoms that we suffer from. Take care!
