Right Side Of Head Aching

The right side of my head just above and in fron of my ear is intermittently aching in the evening and hurts to the touch.  If I lightly run my hand over it, it hurts worse right now.  Thoughts?  

 

I am only taking a multi vitamin and Vitamin D (2000IU's).

 

My BP is 138/90.

HIya eers,

 

Could be from tension, allergies, food, just really hard to know.  I usually pop a couple of Excedrin Migraines, but Tylenol may work too.  Sometimes caffeine will help a headache because it constricts the blood vessels.  But caffeine and chocolate can also be triggers for migraines.  I also use an ice pack when laying down.  just wrap it in a washcloth and lay it over the area that hurts.  I often get the surface pain with my headaches.  And drink extra water, why?  extra water helps EVERYTHING.  

 

Good luck eers,

 

Colleen

Just a thought... have you seen a dentist?  Sometimes face pain can be associated with TMJ issues or teeth-grinding and/or jaw clenching.

Thanks.  Today was much better in that I did not have this experience at all.  I was doing some reading and staring at computer screens yesterday.  I also managed to find myself in a debate that may have been more stressful than I realized.  Today, I went out on my motorcycle and did my first workout in a real long time.  No headache...

      Confused about my results

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hurrah for an official diagnosis!   You may want to put the whole family on gluten free, as a preventative measure for the ones not testing positive right now.  Remember, exposure to gluten triggers the Celiac genes your kids have inherited from you.  Keeping them gluten free now, even though they don't test positive right now, can delay triggering Celiac Disease development in them.

      Dealing with celiac and menstrual cycle

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @annirosex, Get your Vitamin D level checked.  Low Vitamin D can mess up menstrual cycles.  Vitamin D at healthy levels (80-100) acts as a hormone and regulates your immune system.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is needed to activate Vitamin D, so adding thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial.

      Thank you! I saw a different provider this week who took one look at all my medical information and declared it was celiac in the first 5 minutes of the appointment. I am still a bit in shock but so very thankful to have an official diagnosis. The doctor told me to have my children tested and one of them came back with a "weak positive" TTG IgA! Not sure what to think about that! This week has been a wild ride. Thankfully this website has such great information! I've been going through all the do's and don't's of cross contact etc.

      Still unsure.....

      Good job! Brave astronaut! The other B vitamins can be stored in the body longer than thiamine.  You won't mess them up.

      I took my first 100 mg this morning. Let's see what happens. Still a bit nervous of messing up my other B vitamins since I don't have a B complex at the moment. Thanks for your replies Knitty Kitty!
