Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 OK - since my head bump on New Years eve - any time I get in the shower - if it is a HOT shower - (hot enough to produce steam) - I will get a " chiari " headache. Meaning - I get a headache in the back of the head - and a headache in the sinus area and right behind the eyes. Does anyone experience the same thing? I have never had this happen - until this new injury. THanks ahead for any input. in Leesburg - Decompressed in 02 C5/C6 fusion 02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 My headache doesn't get worse, but dizziness is a huge problem in the shower....especially when I close my eyes in there. Hang in there, Hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 I too get either headaches or dizziness while in the shower. Not quite as often as before my detethering surgery. But, what I have noticed is that the back of my head (occiput) really hurts when I bend my head back to wash and rinse my hair. The dizziness occurs when I bend over like to shave my legs and then stand up. Sadly, unless I'm having a good day, I wait until my husband comes home from work before I get in the shower. I just don't always feel safe. Oh, and I seem to have a problem with the temperature of the water. I don't like it too hot, unless I'm feeling chilled. And if I get too hot, like in the Summer, I'll take lukewarm to cool showers. --------------------------------- Looking for earth-friendly autos? Browse Top Cars by " Green Rating " at Yahoo!
