Back from Drs

And she was the nicest Dr I have seen.

She gave me a full neuro check and said there was nothing abnormal, and hopes that reassurance eases my mine but understands how bad HA can be. She said she doesn't feel the need to send me for a scan on my head as it would mean exposing me to radiation which can cause damage and there is nothing to suggest I need a scan.

She said my headaches could be from the citalopram or HA or just stresses of life and they are tension headaches.

Has the reassurance eased your mind? Did she tell you what to take for the headaches?

I use that 4head which works well for me, I suffer with tension headaches and they are awful, I find the 4head cools me down which then eases the tension. You should also treat yourself to a massage see if that helps :)

Same here, got back from Dr's again last night. Said it is tension headaches. Been 3 weeks now :-(

Citalopram gave me crippling headaches which were so bad I couldn't move from the sofa. On stopping the Citaloram the headaches stopped after a few days.
