Suggest Treatment For Constant Headaches With Black Outs

Hello and how are you? my husband has had a constant, wakes up with it and goes to bed with it, headache for about 4 years! He has been to the e.r. twice when it got real bad and one time because he blacked out while driving and got in an accident. he said it feels like he has a baseball cap on but he doesn t. the first e.r. visit came back with nothing, and the second one atleast a year later was a severe sinus blockage, gave him an antibiotic and said have a nice day! we have kids so an affordable remedy would be nice, at this point getting rid of the headache would be greatly appreciated by the whole family! thank you DorAnn Harvey

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that your husband is having headache associated with black outs of vision.
My response to your question is as follows.

These symptoms indicate prodromal symptoms of migraine headache.
The other causes that needs to be ruled out are transient ischemic attack and vascular headaches.
This requires treatment by the use of analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for any further questions and I will be happy to answer and assist you.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
