My 18 year old daughter's condition is very complex as a result of EDS III and severe dysautonomia but her very first presenting symptom was a head-pain. My query is whether any here has heard of, or suffers with similar ( and maybe resolved it!) On March 14th 2012, my perfectly healthy 15 year old daughter took a really bad pain in her head (non-throbbing, one-sided (left), behind her eye and up into the front of her head and temple) which was accompanied by severe nausea (she also had hiccups for almost 4 days at the start of the headache). For two weeks, the pain would last for between 20mins and 3 hours at a time and would completely remit (including the nausea) between pains. After two weeks, the pain (always with the severe nausea) became a constant 24/7 background pain (5/10) with peaks (7-8/10) lasting from 30mins to 13hrs straight. This has continued, without a break, for the past three years. The peaks can happen spontaneously but are unfailingly triggered by; - travelling in any vehicle - attempting to focus on text - looking at TV, computer screens, phones - pressing a point at the base of her skull, left side. Since the headache started. she is unable to read as she can only make out text in isolated, single words. She had a simple fall about 3 weeks prior to the headache, where she landed heavily on her upper back and got a whiplash-style injury (didn't bang her head). A CT scan showed tonsillar herniation but subsequent MRI's (including upright) were "normal". Greater Occipital Nerve Blocks didn't help, Multiple Cranial Nerve Blocks took the intensity down for a week or so, Botox did nothing, Lyrica didn't help. She's very poorly now and I suppose, in some respects I'm just trying to bring her ease in some aspect of her condition. Despite three years of searching, I have yet to come across a headache just like this. Her specialist doctors are stumped also. Thank you for reading this. Karen.
