Hi,
I've had a constant dull headache since May. It started with a massive bang of a headache whilst I was asleep. It woke me up at 05:30 in the morning - v. Painful. It felt like I'd slept on a blood vessel & cut off the supply. I couldn't move my head... since then I've had all sorts of odd/irritating symptoms.
Dull ache behind my left eye. When I'm tired at night, it hurst to close my eye. I've had pressure checked and it's ok. It does feel like it's being pushed out though.
Dull, sometimes hot, ache on temple/left side of head that radiates to top of my head. (Doesn't throb)
Earache with numbness of left ear and side of face (intermittent and once on other side of head)
Tingling in hands - mostly right one.. slight weakness whilst tingling. Often but not constant.
Twice my left eye stopped moving whilst I was staring at something causing my vision to go really weird.
Neck ache, base of skull, left side.
Anxiety/panic attacks
Menhorragia
Anaemia - ferritin level 3.. recently risen to 17 with iron supplements.
Doctor thinks it's all linked to anaemia and is anxiety based. This has been constant since May - with variation in severity. Painkillers barely touch it.
Do you have any experience of this or think it's something to worry about?
TIA.
