Background - HA started after the birth of my daughter 7 years ago.
I recently gave birth to my youngest daughter 13 weeks ago and I’ve felt the anxiety bubbling away for approx 6 weeks. The past few weeks it’s upped its game. I’m reluctant to take meds whilst breastfeeding.
A week ago I felt like I had a migraine - one sided, eye pain and numb cheek. Tablets took it off and I’m certain I’ve experienced the same a year or so ago.
Tension (maybe) headaches on and off since baby was born.
Wednesday - I got a sharp stabbing pain in my head
Friday - woke up with tingling all down my right hand side and felt sick. No headache.
I went to the dr who was thorough but scared the crap out of me - possible TIA and needed a scan that day. She conferred with another doctor who thought migraine and no need for a scan.
As soon as I walked out of the drs my face went tingly both sides so I think possible anxiety. My blood pressure was sky high at my appt too.
Saturday - my hands and face were tingly all day but I think both sides.
Sunday - ok.
I’m so worried it’s something serious like a tumour. I feel nauseous - could be anxiety or could be a tumour! I don’t have an headache but do feel like my head is full or pressure.
To top my anxiety the dr has just rang to check on me - you don’t do that with a simple migraine!
I’m constantly checking my vision and my balance. Trying to tell it I’ve any tingling. The only trouble is I can’t even remember what feels “normal” anymore.
