Pressure behind the eyes


by: PWG on Tue, Sep 11 2007

I have been feeling the pressure behind both eyes for about 3 months. I have seen 2 ENT Dr’s, 2 masseuses, 2 dentists and 3 Neuro docs. I finally came across a Neurosurgeon Dr. that cared and gave me the time of day.

Most of the Dr’s I have seen have told me not to worry and it will go away in time. This chronic tension pressure is not fun to live with. I start feeling the pressure behind my eyes about 1 hour after waking up and lasts on and off for about 8 hours until I get into the gym and work out. I have found cardio workouts to help. The dr. prescribed medication. I have been taking it for a week and believe it or not it is helping. I am still going to the acupuncture once a week. The Dr. has told me I am suffering from chronic tension headache. I hope these meds knock it out of my system. My gut tells me this Dr. is the right one for the job.

If you don’t feel better or your gut tells you to move on to the next Dr., DO IT!!! God bless and try to take it easy. We are the ones living with this pain, not the docs… Anybody else suffering this type of pressure

    This is the first time this ever happened. I am 35 yrs young. It started as a dull headache, so i assumed it was just from being tired. as it got worse my balance was little affected, then my speech. I slept on it, with hope to be better by morning. Started out manageble, but kept getting worse even with Excedrin Migraine Clariton. [more..]
