What Causes Headaches, Forgetfulness, Wheezing And Cough?

Hi I was having headaches everyday for about 6 days. I don t get the as frequent now but my memory is getting worse and I am forgetting words. I have also had a cough for the passed couple of months now. Although it s not frequent, it is annoying. I am wheezy with it too. It now has started hurting my back in the middle of my shoulder blades when I cough.

Neurologist 's  Response
Hello ! I read your question and understand your concern.
I think your headache is chronic daily headache, a common cause of headache causing difficulty with concentration too. I would recommend treatment with an antidepressant like Amytriptiline, Nortriptiline etc. These drugs are really effective in this type of headache.
As for the cough I would recommend to consult with your GP, it may be chronic bronchitis. You should have a thoracal xray and a full blood work for that.
I would like to know your age. The treatment of memory problems depends on the age and the diagnosis. You should consult with a neurologist and have a good neurological examination and neuropsicological tests to examine better the memory problems.
The more natural way of treatment for memory problems would be a diet full of vegetables and fruits, antioxidants. There are different drugs also.
Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Abaz Quka
