Does Withdrawal Of Fluids From Spinal Chord Reduce Severe Headaches?
Sir,
Myself R Tomar from India, my wife (age23) is suffering from headache since 10 years, I got married 10 months before, now since 15-20 days she is facing severe headache , CT NGO , CT Scan , MRI and Findus exam has been done and nothing was found, pain is un bearable mostly when she wake ip in morning.
Headache Areas:
Mostly all time-sometimes in different clusters and some times in whole brain.
Doctor is saying that this is psycological , they are suggesting to withdraw liquid from spinal chord for reducing fluid pressure in brain , so that pain can be reduced. Will it work ?
kindly help.

Headache in case of your wife has not been diagnosed yet.Aspiration of cerebrospinal fluid is not the answer. Some investigation has been done. You have not given the history properly. Is she having vomiting and relief of headache after vomiting? what is her intraocular pressure? Vision should be recorded and refraction to be done to exclude astgmatism. Temporal artritis is to be excluded. Is she under stress always?If so take her to Trivandrum Medical Collage and her admited for treatment & cure.
