Julie,

I too have been suffering with these horrible headaches and I do suspect that they are related to my menstrual cycle and hormonal fluctuations. For 3 years I was either pregnant &/or nursing and had no periods. During this time I also had no headaches (except for maybe an occasional minor one). My period came back this past June and I have suffered for days at a time with the worst headaches ever! This has only happened twice so far, however, each time it was during the last two days of my period and then 1-2 days beyond that. Nothing works perfectly but Excedrin Migrane helps a little. The other symptom I have along with the headache is a (very difficult to describe, but I'll try) hollow feeling pressure (the first time) in my chest (almost felt like broncitis without the other symptoms) and this past time in my stomach area! I feel it mostly when I walk! I know this is very weird but it is connected because it is the same type of feeling both times and comes only with the headache. The other weird thing though is that the strange feeling can last up to a week after the headaches are gone! I personally don't know what to do. I do have an appt with my gyn. a week from Fri. Hopefully he'll be able to help. Any other suggestions please e-mail me at MWirth2786@aol.com Thanks
