I'm having horrible headaches?

Question

For the past 2 weeks I have had debilitating headaches. They are waking me up around 2 or 3am, throbbing. I take extra strength Tylenol or Ibuprofen (800mg) but nothing seems to be helping. I am also experiencing blurry vision. They seem to be pulsating around my temples. I am on a lot of medication but I've been taking it for some time without any unpleasant side effects. What, if anything, could be going on with me? I feel like if I saw a doctor they would just give me more Ibuprofen which really isn't helping.

I'm taking:

Wellbutrin-SR (150mg/twice day)

Nexium 40mg

Vitamins (2/day)

Biotin

Calcium

Answer 1

have you changed your diet lately? sometimes that can trigger migraines, or maybe you've been more/less active

Answer 2

Please see a doc as soon as possible.  It could be a number of things..at the worst a possible brain tumor...that happened to two people I know.  I find that lack of sleep and overdosing on cafeine gives me really bad headaches, but please take this seriously and see a doctor soon.

Answer 3

Unfortunetly, you are not having headaches, you are having migraines.

I've stuggled with those since I was 11. I would see you doctor and explain your symptoms and they will prescibe you something. (probably imitrex or propranolol) They wont prescribe you ibuprofin so don't worry!
