Question: For almost eight months now I have suffered severe headaches on the left side of my head. This started after a sinus cold. I get face pain, pain in my forehead, my head and the back of my head. The pain is very severe, like a drill is going in my head. Its worse at night, I wake up @ 3:00 with severe pain. Tylenol 3 usually subsides it. I have had a cat scan done, with no obvious reasons for the pain (I have a metal plate in my forehead from A previous surgery for a benign pituitary tumour in 1973, which does not allow the doctor to see all of the cat scan) I have no aura, vomitting or light problems (Ive had migraines before, this is different) Worse when I lie down. I have quit alcohol, coffee and am just about finished a Yeast buster cleanse. My pain is getting worse, and more frequent. My family doctor says he doesn't know what to do with me. I have fluid in my right ear (my headaches are on the eft side). I have tried to be positive for healing, but I have come to the end of my rope, feeling hopeless and very depressed. I am very afraid.
