I Have A Question To Ask, Can Anyone Tell Me If They Have Or Are Suffering With Pains In Or Around Their Heads

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

I have pain in different places in my head they can range from: sensation of waviness, sharp pains where I can't move my head till the pain has gone to dull aches in the back of my head. I can feel dizzy or light headed or sometimes I feel like I am going to pass out, I have to go to bed and when it passes I feel cold. This can happen without warning, all of a sudden.

Pregablin is not a Parkinson's medication its a anti epileptic medication maybe worth thinking about.

I not long after diagnosis had nerve ending pain all up my left side including my face and head. My left is my most effected side it felt like pins and needles crawling up my body. Don't know if this sounds anything like what you're experiencing but I was prescribed another med which controlled it called pregablin very effective two 25mg tablets per day stopped it from effecting me hope this helps xx

Honestly, I have no idea what may cause pain in the head and so forth. I could guess that this may be a side effect of your med,s Hugs, Pam

Good advice Betty ! I would also add that someone who is in need should also contact their DEPARTMENT OF AGING where they live. Hugs, Pam

We all must keep updated with PD. If there is a question you can also contact the National Parkinson's Foundation, located in Silver Spring, Md..They have consultants to help you with questions and free literature to also help you. Hugs, , Pam
