Guest guest Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 I can't stand the pain any longer either. The base of my skull(back of head) and my neck never get relief from the pain. there's so much pressure. The pain is throbbing and heavy-like. I havent had a break from this pain in over 3 weeks. sometimes, usually with exertion, the pain does go up the back of my head into the front, and becomes a headache....or migraine It can go into my temples and behind my jaw,it seems. I used to only get this pain after exertion,like coughing, cleaning, bending over, etc. and therefore I could really watch what i did. Now, that isnt the case. I have a new pain too. it feels like it is in the spine. i just havent figured out exactly what part yet. well, I just moved to check, and it is central. I have wanted to go to the ER every night too. I am afraid to go because i don't have insurance right at the moment and I have no way to pay it. I'm forkin out 40$ a month to an attorney for ER bills. Furthermore, the Er never treats me. they never have. well, I dont know if I should say this or not, but one night the pain was sooo crushing and severe that I would have done anything to get the pain gone. I drove over an hour to my mother's just hoping she would be there and have something for pain. I begged her to take me to the ER where a nsg that i saw once was at. Unfortunately, she couldn't. Honestly, I don''t know how i have made it through a whole year without meds. Actually, I haven't. I do nothing because I cant do anything. it is enough for me to see my daughter off to school and take care of my 3 yr old son. What's weird though, is the dizziness, nystagmus doesn't happen anymore. I do get a sinking feeling, and othr little things, but the actual spinning and eye movements are gone.. I have no balance anymore(i used to do parallel bars,etc in gymnast). hugs- inOhio 8mm dx 5/01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
