Horrific migraine/ tension headaches

Posted , 6 users are following.

Ladies i have never experienced anything like this. 5 yrs into peri and yes i have experienced headaches, head pressure/ sinus problems but what i have experienced in the last 3 days till this very moment is a hell like no other. I am scared thinking the worst. I mean its so bad not even Tylenol extra strength is working. I feel also off balance, fuzzy head. The pounding, the tightness, i am left speechless. Its located in my forehead area. sometimes brain zaps. Dear God why do us women have to go through this. Has any of you women experienced such debilitating headaches ?

    I've had these too! i treat it like a tension headache and seems to help a lot! press thumb between eyebrows and tilt your head back,. I dont know how it works, but it relieves pressure. a good neck rub helps too! feel better soon!
