Cervical Headaches
by: Anonymous

Two years after my cervical fusion at 5,6&7 i am still suffering from severe headaches. They occur daily and any relief i get only lasts a few hrs. I've had every injection possible including botox ,radio frequency ablasion,accupuncture,tens,ice,heat,physical therapy,massage therapy,cervical traction and i cant count the number of different meds. We are interviewing for an ocipital stimulator soon but nothing has been able to last. My headache is constant, thumping with my heartbeat and progress to full blown migraine almost every day if it is'nt there upon getting up in the morning.My neck and traps are always full of knots and my head is tender to the touch.I'm missing my life ,my kids grow up and so much more. I currentley take lyrica,amitryptilyn & depakote daily; then rotate between trexamet and cambia when the headaches start to get worse. Any ideas out there would be appreciated ..
TY
