Hi all, im jon 19 from the usa

this is my story

I have been getting head pains for about a month now, i have gone to the hopstial and dr's for this, and i was also sent to the ER for a cat scan which i did about 2 to 3 weeks ago and everything was fine, they just thought i was suffering from headaches, which they gave me a med for and they went away, ever since, a day or 2 later, my head just didn't seem right it felt heavy, and my neck just didn't seem to hold it up..ok so everything sees fine now right? no

i have had neck pain, stiffness thinking ok maybe my neck just is sore from sleeping the wrong way or so, but about 5 days ago i felt weak in my legs and arms, and could hardly stand for a long period of time, and i have a bump on the back of my head towards the right side and my head feels like pursure is building, sometimes i feel good, and other times i feel like im gunna die, im really scared and don't know what to do, can anyone please help me, but my parents and girlfriend say they feel nothing, which at this point im telling them there crazy, and they think it is nothing fatity wrong with me, i am terrible scared and right now my head feels like it is going to blow, and to back track a bit when the pain is strong i get dizzy and very light headed and i get a sharp pain at the tip of my ear lop and random sharp pains else where

If anyone could please help me that would be great, thank you

Go back to your doctor immediately. At the very least he/she should be able to help with panic or anxiety attacks.

The other thing you could do is see a physiotherapist about how you stand, walk, sit - particularly if you are using computers a great deal. it is surprising how few people understand the simple business of movement and its effect on the spine and muscles.

I agree, only a doctor can help you Smile So get to yours ASAP!

It may just be migraines, i was about your age when my migraines started, there are lots of helpful prescription medications out there now.

Hi Jon, this may sound crazy. Two years ago I was suffering from alot of headaches myself. I had my eyes checked and needed glasses, everything has been fine since. I use the computer alot at work, read, cross stitch and my eyes were just getting tired. I tried the md doctor thing before the eye doctor and he said everything was fine too. I'm not trying to make light of your situation. I know you are feeling alot more symptoms than just the headaches and maybel you already have eyeglasses, but it is worth a shot. Accupuncture might me a good idea too. My husband has a brain tumor and she is helping with his immune system and he says he can feel the difference after getting the treatments. Just some food for thought.

Good Luck
