I have chronic neck pain. An MRI shows wear and tear and some disintegration of the cartilage between 3 vertebrae, quite common for my age. The pain actually comes from muscle pain at the back and the sides of my neck. Every now and again I am woken in the early hours with the worst pain in my forehead accompanied by vomiting that lasts most of the day. I have been taking Propranolol for several years for migraine but my usual migraines that started as a child begin with aura then vomiting and pain. Does this sound like migraine? or a 'type' of headache caused my muscular pain?

    Doesn't sound like migraine. Sounds more like a type of headache from muscular pain. Although the vomiting would be a bit concerning.

    I have chronic migraine 😦 Also on Propranalol.
