Hi,

I have had an unusual Migraine the last One month. It has been notorious on the weekends and sometimes recurring during the week evenings. Tried thinking hard what I do different over the weekend but, Nothing.

Each time, it easily lasts more than 3 hours.. and I always have to sleep it Off. Only pains on the left side of the head and makes me feel as if my left eye wants to pop out... Plus a feeling as if the veins stretch to a point they want to break.
I really believe m not stressed (though people say you wouldn't know if you were) smile
It worries me and now have no option but to see a doc immediately.

Possible to advice what type of Physician to see? Exact Doctor suggestions are welcomed (if within my Cover, I will consider him/her).

Thank You.

Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.

Go to the nearest clinic and have your blood pressure checked ASAP.

You will likely need to see a neurosurgeon...
But that does not mean they will go away soon it will be a while, you will be put on some drugs, Betaphyn, Syndol, Immigran, etc etc... these drugs will make you drunk especially Betaphyn...ni kama kuwa na hangover from God knows where...its a disaster. But i feel you...
The other thing you need to do is just be more aware/vigilant of what you eat, for some people could be cheese, some wines red/white, stress levels, change of lifestyle, sleeping patterns list is endless... It is you to know.
The other thing you need to do if you are not doing is start exercising, run, run, run, your ass off...this for some people helps...
All the best if you are luck yours will subside and even go away...migraines suck!

NB: the experience of waiting for the neurosurgeons is not fun at all, the queues...be prepared...you could try Dr Jowi at AGH, or DR Kwasa I think at general accident house.

Again all the best!

While one may need to find out what's really happening to you as a whole, the case of treating your condition is easy and direct in 'natural medicine'. There are techniques to strengthen your nervous and endocrine systems, and techniques to enable you to Ward off migraine 'triggers'. And you can save long term costs by easing into a lifestyle that helps you prevent other diseases and conditions.

I can help, if you wish.

Generally, i've not had a problem though I use computers and gadgets (with screens) all the time.. for this, I always endeavor to reduce brightness to a bare minimum..

I wouldn't rule out my eyes actually... But tuone Daktari atasema nini.
