Help re 3 day headache

I have just called docs who now take appointments from 8.30 rather than 12.00 so am now annoyed that I cant go in and get sorted and not sure I can bear another moment of this.

I have had a thudding headache since Saturday, went to bed (I suffer from migraines and normally sleeping it off is best sometimes with a fw pain killers or those colling pads for your forehead). Pain killers and sleep have not worked and I still have this headache... esp when I stand up and walk around it is as if everything in my head is heavy and moving around and knocking the side. (Strange explanation)

I also have a similar pain in my back from my shoulders down.

I am now having dizzy spells when I get up as well and a colleague has just had to get me a glass of water as he thought I was going to faint.

Poor you. I don't know what to say really except that since discovering you can alternate paracetamol and nurofen when the kids are really ill (and so do a double hit as it were) I do that myself sometimes when I'm feeling really rough (nurofen + with paramol works for my headaches)

Hope you feel better soon
