Does anyone have chronic daily headaches?

Yes.
Still unknown cause but I have had them since I was 5 and im now 18. I get migraines too. Topamax and solpadol with ibuprofen help a bit, but not much.

i had daily headaches and magraines that sent me to the er until i started taking topamax and inderal about 15 to 18 years ago. i started on low doses and now i'm on 300mg of topamax and 160 mg of inderal daily and i can truly say that maybe i'll get a hint of a headache if things get really stressful around me but for the most part i haven't had a migraine in 5 years. hope this has helped you. missy

Hey Tinyone, I used to have a headache everyday and I feel like it was a couple of things going on. I was on birth control pills for years and I really do feel that contributed to the headaches. I also ate alot of processed food and know that that causes migraines and I work as a hairdresser with my head bent over alot. I did cut down on the processed foods and no longer take birth control as I don't need it. The amitriptyline did help as well, I am sorry it didn't work for you. See if you can find some articles about the foods that trigger migraine and avoid those and it should help at least some. The birth contol pills are another matter, I personally would have rather had the headache than risk a baby I didn't want or need. Best of Luck to you.

sorry that you have been through so much with your headaches since you haven't had meds for 3 months maybe a short hospital stay won't hurt. if you have good benefits, if not i know someone else mentioned a guide of food ect.of migraine triggers ask your neurologist for that guide it also helped me.

Fibromyalgia could. not sure how or why? Dr. asked me about my head-aches. when he told me I had othritous.+ Fibermyalia.

I've had chronic tension headaches for about a year. Had an MRI on my cervical spine and it showed it being very straight. The radioligists conclusion was that I was have musle spasms in my back and neck and it was pulling on the muscles under my scalp. It is not painfull, but feels like a tighness/numbness around the top of my head. In the beginning it would turn into burning and moved into my arms. My Dr. has diagnosed it as Tension Headaches related to stress/anxiety and poor posture in front of the computer for 20 years. He prescribed me 1mg Xanax 3 times a day and Zoloft 2mg once a day. It keeps it under control. On weekends, when I'm relaxed, I don't need to take a Xanax in the afternoon. I use to get only 5 to six hours of sleep a night and now I get 7 to 8 when I take a Xanax before bed time. I also dream much more than I did before I started Xanax which tells me I'm getting a good deep sleep. I'm going to massage therapy and chiropractor and I hope eventually it will go away. I'm 46 and never had any headache problems in my past.

GHD in response to your question. I have CDH(chronic daily headaches)and perhaps at a later date I will provide a 'cautionary tale' for those of a particular constitutional type which seem prone to overstimulation often leading to migraines and CDH. Here though, I would simply suggest that neither you, or anyone esle suddenly stop any medication without medical advice and support. I am deadly serious about this one fact. You might be taking a single medication or a number of them..the strength, type of..what they are prescribed for..all can lead to a DANGEROUS 'EVENT.' Unless otherwise instructed by a physician(or having a life threatening response to a medication), taper..taper... taper. There are ways of approaching this and a life style change may be required which requires a very attentive and comprehensive look at what you do and think in your daily life. I know. Hard to do when a knitting needle is slowly being pushed through one of your eyes, but as Marcus Aurelius is to have said: 'THE UNEXAMINED LIFE IS NOT WORTH LIVING.' GHD

I suffer frim headaches over 75% of the month, Relpax works great but its an expensive drug and my prescription plan only covers 7 a month. What can I do the rest of the month? I always wonder how many replax one could take a month? The doctors try topamax the generic didn't work, brand name costs 200.00 a month, too expensive. Now I am on Keppra for a couple of days? Wonder what's going to haqppen next! I will let you know.

I had everyday headaches. When MRI with dye was done, they seen a blood clot in a vain that had stopped an just stayed there. has been there for 4 1/2 years. headaches have gotton better so it must be getting smaller.

I suffer from the same thing. I have since I was 15. I tried all kinds of migraine preventatives over the past 11 years with no success. I am now prescribed hydrocodone 10/650's and I would not recommend them at all. They help for a few months, then they start to cause worse headaches, your tolerance builds up, then you become addicted to a medication that really doesn't help much anyway. They also gave me Migranal nasal spray. That does help temporarily but it is very expensive, almost $350 for 6 little vials.

i wake up with a headache everyday and usually keep it all day. i take goody powders. thats it. i know they are bad for you, but it usually works fast to knock it out, it just doesnt last long. i think that my headaches come from the hydrocodone im on. i dont remember having headaches like this before i started the hydro about a year ago. i dont think its migraines... but it is chronic. i rarely get relief... i hope u do.
