Please help, am at my wits end... peri menopause?????

Posted , 4 users are following.

Ok so i've had a throbbing hot headache for 2 weeks straight, like a band of hurt around my head but my forehead is the hottest. my temples throb to no end. I go to bed with a throbbing head and i wake up with it, its never ending. When i take my medication it makes it 10 times worse so i have to take it in small amounts through the day. My periods are perfectly normal and on time like clockwork. i went to the hospital as referred by my doctor but was put on a drip for migraines and when i left i felt just as bad.

i put a cold wet compress on my head and it is hot to the touch minutes later. I went to another doctor and he wants me to get tests for hormone levels. I'm at my wits end and just want them to stop. For a while there i was sweating between my thighs, down my back, i would feel hot and then cold at work for no apparent reason but this seems to have eased. i did mention to someone as a joke i wonder if i'm going through menopause and it was brushed off as a joke by my co-worker so i didn't think much of it, i don't have nausea or any type of sickness whatsoever. I haven't been able to work since my headaches. Anyone have any suggestions or a similar cases please? thank you in advance , Angela
