Ever since i caught fluIm left with headache..never had headaches like this..mostly in back of head..nausea & dizzy comes in waves..making me moody too..2 months now..anyone get these type of headaches?

Nese

Hi Nese, about the headaches. No, I can't say that I have had anything like that. Most of my headaches had pressure around the frontal lobes with dizziness that comes and goes. I never felt really naseous and haven't had dizzy spells in quite a while. The fatigue for me now is most severe. I hope that helps and I hope you start feeling better. You are continuing to struggle.. so sorry.

Hey Nese,

Though I never had headaches in the back of my head, I have had very bad headaches around the front and by the eyes. They hurt so much it made me sick and I did get dizzy sometimes. Most doctors brushed it off as a sinus headache, but the pain would not go away when I took sinus/allergy medication. I had to take narcotics to relieve the pain. I fond out earlier this year that the headaches were due to my neck/spine being out of line. As soon as I got my neck adjusted my pain went away. I hardly ever get the headaches unless my neck is out of line. I don't know if this helps. I also know that if you are constantly under stress, you can get tension headaches. Maybe you should talk to your doctor to see if you can get something to help the pain.

Hi Dave,

these started when i got what i think was the swine flu..had it six weeks..worked and it came back..its all head/stomach...i hear people saying this flu causes this..and in back of head...this is not like no sinus headache..one gal i met was in hospital 2 weeks with swine..body aches and her headache sp bad they gace her oxycnton..she is still suffering lindering headaches she said in back of head with nausea....i have lost quite a bit of weight,hard to eat,it starts up symptoms...yes 9 weeks later...her dr told her it takes 1-3 months to fully recover1

OMG, that's terrible! I hope you have a speedy recovery. That Swine flu is wicked. Hope you feel better

Well, not the greatest of circumstances but as long as you can recovery fully and in a timely manner then you can put it behind ya.
