Cluster Headaches or Something Else?

Post a new topicby livingwith on Tue Mar 04, 2008 9:13 pm

I need help… I just had a new baby 2 1/2 weeks ago. She is awsome and doing great, but I have been having terrible headaches (don’t know for sure if new baby has anything to do with, but..).

Girl i feel your pain. i have been suffering from headaches for the last few months and i have been to doctor after doctor with everyone telling me something else. I finally found a doctor who was willing to help me find out what the problem was and not just give me pain meds. I had a MRI done and they found that my headaches are because of something they found and not cluster headaches. As you i searched the net and i did not think what i was experiancing was what they thought. I think you should contact a doctor and request them to send you for an MRI. This would rule out anything in that area of the brain,....
Good Luck and i hope you get better soon. Congrates on the baby/...
