Suggest Remedy For Pressure And Pain In The Head And Neck.

hello my name is susan, I am 53 yrs old I was in an auto accident approx. 6 years ago that has left me perm disabled with tbi. I have headaches and terrible neck pain daily, I am on pain meds muscle relaxers etc everything ive been through ive often wished I just wasn t even alive anymore, mri s and cat scans showed only c5 c6 herniated disc, ive had multiple injections not much has helped me. the pain, and pressure in my head and neck has been increasing the past 6 months almost unbearable. my eyes are blurry on and off when my head is forward I feel like passing out. ive started having trouble with nausea and vomiting in the past 2 months, so much trouble focusing, those are the main problems, there are others if you can believe it. the accident has taken away my life, me, and it is so hard to have things the way they used to be with my husband we were so close. do you have any advice, some doctors understand what I m going through others don t seem to think its all in my head. my husband sees my agony every day, how I cant sleep, he knows, I m almost ready to give up, thank you for your consideration, susan
