tbi and headaches

Post a new topicby laurad on Sun Nov 25, 2007 8:35 am

Hi everyone,
I had a car accident in february 2006 and rolled my car over the central reservation and into oncoming traffic on the motorway. I am still experiencing so many symptoms and I have been diagnosed with tbi. I am seeing a neuro surgeon soon to try and figure out my problems, as I have had terrible headaches recently, one every two weeks and they can only be relieved by going to the hospital and getting morphine. The headaches feel like my head is going to explode from the pressure and it makes me feel so guilty for being ill all the time as my fiance has to look after me.I am in my last year of university and finding it so hard but I keep going as I have to finish my degree just for my own satisfaction. I just wondered if anyone else had these terrible headaches (especially in the right side of my eye) and what they could be?are they related to the tbi?
Many Thanks

Yes TBI and headaches go hand and hand I suffer regularly from crippling headaches.

I would love to know if you got any resolution for your headaches.
