What To Do If Having Headaches And Burp Puking Regularly?

I ve been experiencing headaches every day for about two weeks. I try to avoid pain relievers as much as possible but when it becomes unbearable the only thing that helps is excedrin migraine. On top of that I am burp puking at least 10 times a day. This happens even if I just eat crackers and water.

Hello!

I read your question carefully and understand your concern.

I think that the symptoms you describe seem to be a tension type headache, a type of headache caused by contraction of the scull muscles.
The problems with eating may be related to gastritis, indigestion or air swallowing during the day ( caused by anxiety).

I recommend you to consult with your GP for a physical examination, perform a routine blood test for anemia and a sinus xray to exclude a possible sinusitis.

Starting amytriptiline for some months would be very helpful if the diagnosis of tension type headache would be confirmed.

I would also advise you to consult with the gastroenterologist for the digestion problems and possibly perform a fibrogastroscopy.

Hope to have been helpful!

Greetings! Dr. Aida
