my head feels like it's going to burst. Pressure around eyes and temples. Can't take abx. Any herbs or anything that will help?

Sounds like one of my migraine symptoms - which of course are caused by lyme and co. Maybe Advil or Motrin? Nothing much takes this away - just comes and goes.

oh man I've had this since around december 18th and yes it comes and goes but never really goes away. Pain ranges from 6 to 2 but never less

Have you considered a migraine preventive medicine? That may relieve the symptoms until you are able to treat the lyme.

have you tried massaging temples with lavender or peppermint oil? just beginning to research these, organic vs. not, etc.

I have an appt with my doc on Friday at 10 and plan on telling him about this. He's going to do bloodwork and stuff then too
Posted by back2game (Member # 23927) on :
good luck with doc appt! praying for some relief for you ...

Diamox sometimes helps.

Could it be a sinus infection?
There is a miserable cold/flu going around here that also gives lots of congestion.
Everyone I know either has had it or has it.
Sorry you're not feeling well.

- Reaction to an Rx? Need more water or minerals? -

What about zyrtec and alkaseltzer gold? They seem to both help my head pressure.
