Hi all..need your help & suggestions. I've had ice pick headaches for 20 years or so and am presently on a combination of Neurontin and Indomethacin (which are working well). This last month, I've noticed "new" places where I'm getting jabs. They aren't necessarily painful, just annoying. My ice picks have ALWAYS been in the same spot on my head (top left), however these new jabs are coming at just about anywhere on my head - what the heck is going on? Feels like someone is snapping me with a rubber band. I still have head rushes and feelings of "heat" on the top left of my head and I'm assuming that those are my stabs trying to "break through" the line of medicines, but aren't getting through (thank goodness). Does any of this ring a bell with anyone? Seems also to be worse mid-month for me (I'm female). Help - I just want to know I'm "semi-normal" and something isn't brewing here....Thanks all - hope you're all doing well.
