Stupid headaches part 3.
yep another post already.
small briefing last year i had a episode where the right side of my head starting hurting constantly everyday, not bad but constant and my eye on that side starting really getting bad too.
i was convinced i had a brain tumor but after being told by a few er doctors and my doctor that its probably fine i starting taking magnesium and got a new prescription for my glasses and it calmed down after about a month haven't had em sense until this year where it started all over again.
(brief over)
i went to the er yesterday again cause i genuinely thought i was having a stroke, they looked back on my ct scan from a few days ago and re-informed me that everything looks normal and just to get an appointment with a neurologist.
they also gave me two shots one for nausea (didn't get the name) and one for headaches (sumatriptan), the headache shot messed me up i was in so much pain but i suppose it kinda worked as the pain from the medication was enough to completely drive away the headache pain!
afterwards i didn't feel any pain on my right side but i think the pressure was still there, weirdly enough when i got home i kept closing my right eye (its drooping anyway so it mostly just closes on its own) but while using only my left eye i started to get a headache on that side.
unfortunately a hour after i woke up this morning the pain, heaviness, and anxiety is back in full force, i genuinely am so upset. every time im at the er and when i come back even when they dont give me meds both my mind and body feel better! i even feel confident im not gonna die (soon at least)
but the next day everything is bad again, im starting to wonder if im somehow just manifesting alot of my symptoms from my constant internet searching and major hypochondria, but at the same time i want to be "prepared" if there really IS somthing wrong.
this feels like its ruining my life. im so tired, scared, frustrated, i just want to feel normal again.
again thank you if you read all of that <3 i really appreciate any feedback even if its just to call me stupid and tell me to chill out lol
