Migraines and headaches
Can anyone help?
I have had a headache for 6 days solid now and last night it affected the vision in my right eye, it went blurry.
I am drinking plenty of fluids, eating healthily and taking exercise, but it does not seem to stop these headaches.
I did suffer before being pregnant, but almost everything I used to take is of course forbidden now. Paracetemol does absolutely nothing and I am suffering.
Can the doc give me anything else ( I am so loathed to take anything in pregnancy), or do I just have to struggle on?
Thank ladies

sorry i wasnt much help just wanted you to know your not alone xxx
You need to see them just incase its a sign of pre eclampsia, bad headaches can be a sign.
on a lighter note it might also be worth getting your eyes checked. vision sometimes deteriates in pg and that can cause eye strain and make you more prone to headaches
hope you feel better soon

I do take 8/500 co-codamol and valoid for the sickness and when it gets unbearable and i lose my eyesight im back in hoapital again, sorry i cant offer much help but most doctors will tell you to try not to take anything [like we are going to if we could help it?!?!?] so i would go see your gp and tell them its unbearable and you cant take it anymore and see if they will help you. x
For the time being kool n soothe. xxxx
Hope it clears for you all soon xxxxx
