Hi there,
I went to a GP the other day after having episodes with sharp shooting pain behind my left eye on and off for about 10 days. I call them migraines - which GP seems to think so. However I'm also getting tingling sensations running down my right leg during/after migraine episode. These sharp shooting pains behind my left eye makes my face feel like it is filled with so much pressure behind my eyes and nose. The GP wanted me to get an MRI but also wanted me to go to a hospital. So I did that and was seen and consulted by two different physicians and they both seem to think I present signs of classic migraines. They seem to think my symptoms aren't too worrying although unusual form of migraine only last 10-20 minutes. These will come on without warning and up to 3 times a day. I tried taking pain relief but doesn't work and I had a reaction to codeine. My body (neck and shoulders mainly) is always tense/tight and I have been under a lot of stress lately, but it's no different to the stress I've faced for years. I'm concerned that I may have something a little more serious but just want to know if anyone else has shown signs/symptoms like I have.
Other symptoms include: feeling woozy/light headed. I'll sometimes feel like I'm in a daze and lose focus and concentration. I have a persistent cough although I used to have Asthma pretty bad as a child. I feel run down and tired.
I'm a 27 year old woman and really, I just want to know if anyone else has had something similar to ease my mind a little.
