Title: My second attack of pain
Post by Juan_Pablo on May 19th, 2008, 9:24pm
I'm 17, I was going in a trip to the Caribbean with all my classmates and my girlfriend, I was really happy and enthusiastic until I began with some pain in the side of my head, then it moved behind my eye and stayed there. It began to hurt each time more and more and more.

The airplane landed to refuel and we went inside another airport in a different city

I made my girlfriend call my mom so she could call the doctor, he said I should take Sumatriptan but I couldn't find a decent pharmacy, I ended buying two pills for migraine

The pain mostly ceased but then it began again!

I began to walk all around, then I sat and I began screaming. I lost consciousness a couple of times. The pain was so severe that I asked somebody to shoot me in the head

The plane captain didn't allowed me to continue the trip and I lost the one and only trip to the Caribbean with my classmates and my girlfriend because of this.

It is a very frustrating experience, all my classmates got back yesterday...
I still have some little pain but not so much

Thanks for reading!

Hola Juan Pablo Mi Amigo,

¿Cómo Estás?.  I hope you're doing better.  Sorry you had such a bummer of a trip.  Get your tush to a doctor and hopefully a neurologist.  You need a complete workup asap with headache pain like that.

Take care,

V/R, Batch

I went to the doctor this morning, and he diagnosed cluster headaches  :'(
He asked for a magnetic resonance and a blood test that I will be doing tomorrow and Friday to confirm the diagnose
