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.

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

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.

Sorry for the pain, it sucks!
