    Re: Mystery Cause for Headache

    Thanks for your replies,

    He is a side-side sleeper and tends to get the same symptoms no matter what side he sleeps on. We have talked about pillows, sleeping position, stress, etc. His symptoms are reducing and he had 1 pain free night about 5 days ago - however he is also mixing a few medications at the moment (Endep and diazepam) so it's hard to know how much that's contributing... I'll let you know how things develop...

    Cheers,
    Ray

    Cool Re: Mystery Cause for Headache

    Hallo Ray,

    To try to distinguish the nature of pain so

    -pain felt in the morning and diminshes progressivly,as day go by is an indicative of chronic inflamation.
    -pain and stiffness felt at the beginning of activity and decrease as the activity continues may indicate a muscle problem.
    -pain felt in morning and continues increasing as day go by may indicate a sleeping posture..

    Also let ur patient check if s/he have a sinusitis,vision problems,blood problems(as high or low bp),ear problems,....


    Hope this could help u!

    Regards
