Dont want to dripfeed so may be long! About 3 months ago she got the 1st of her HPV imms and had a very funny turn - was sick, fainted and had an immediate headache.
Since then she has had a permament headache. It varies in intensity but never goes away completely. She wakes up with it and goes to bed with it, food doesnt seem to affect it in any way. About 6 weeks after the headache started she had the most godawful period ever and she was actually crying her head was so sore. She woke when her period started, went to the loo and fainted, falling off the loo . The next day she had to change towels very 1/2hr and soaked through 2 super towels, underwear, tights, jeans and jacket onto the car seat. It lasted like this for about 36 hrs and then got lighter.
So fast forward to today and she still has a flipping headache. The GP tried her on migraine meds which didnt make any difference so we stopped, she does wonder if hormone related but dd hasnt had another period since and so we cant tell yet. GP thinks probably Chronic Daily Headache which worries me as there doesnt seem to be any remedy for them - meds or lifestyle or ?? Shes missed 4 days of school so far.
She has lost her appetite, sleeps a lot and looks rubbish; really awful some days. Shes got quite an olice complexion but shes grey some days with big black bags under her eyes. She has tremours which can last a few seconds or up to 10 minutes. She has a sore tummy quite a lot and is just not herself. On a lot of occassions she feels better once she has eaten or drank something and she does also look a bit better after eating.
We had bloods done and all came back pretty normal - only one missed was glucose as the lab fucked up. Goodness thats long - sorry
Any ideas anyone? Seeing peads on the 24th and just wanted some questions straight in my head before we go.
TIA [SMILE]
