Let's go with flu.

I'd say sinus or stress.

Shouldn't I be blocked up with sinus though?

I've had weird head stuff happening the last two months - pressure, tingling, generally strange sensations. I went to doc and he gave me antibiotics for the sinuses and they had no effect. He told me to come back if that didn't work so I went back to him yesterday and told him that I find it all a bit alarming and he basically sent me off with no more info or suggestions or tablets or instructions to return or anything. Doctors can be quite unsatisfactory.

Please tell me you didn't pay for that appointment

Not always. I get sinus headaches all the time and have no stuffiness. Just pressure. Regular tablets don't help the pain but those sinus (over the counter) tablets do the trick. Blinding headaches always right behind my right eye.

Of course I did.

This sounds like what I have.

What are over-the-counter sinus pills called?

Like a brand name. Do you know?

 

[ernesto]

Of course I did.

I think you need pseudoephedrine, get one with an antihistamine

I didn't agree with him in advance that i wouldn't pay if he was unable to diagnose the problem by looking at me and chatting to me. He did reassure me that he didn't think it was a tumor.

Easier non-news to take if you'd a medical card I suppose. But nothing different to try ease the pain? The scabby bastard

I recently had a CT scan of my sinuses done and the day I went to the hospital the pain around my eyes and the back of my head was chronic. My teeth were hurting and my sinuses felt completely completely inflamed. The results came back clear though. The consultant reckons it's migraine :/ And he also said that sinus problems would never result in pain at the back of your head.

A friend of mine suffers from lower back pain often gets referral pain in her neck and the back of her head from tensing her shoulders.

Grow some whiskers and saturate them in beard oils

He also could've referred you to someone else. And if I were in a similar situation, and didn't have a medical card, I'd be reluctant to pay someone for just 'well I don't think it's cancer'

Thanks, Hives

 

[Diddles]

Sudafed are good too, you can get a little bit out of it on them!

 

[ernesto]

Don't take sudafed before bed, it's like weak speed
