Yes, and maybe I should find another who uses a different technique. The one I went to for the lower back was too rough with me and caused more pain. The massage thearpist I had would not touch my neck area she said there was something very wrong there 2 years before the DR found it.

Just a tip have them look at your upper back and neck. The DR told me I was having tension headaches too, after several visits to the ER for them I went to my DR and told him enough is enough. After 2 years of being told they are just from stress ect, ect, I just got fed up and I wanted to know what was going on. At least my medication works on my migraines nothing worked on these headaches except a shot of pain medication at the ER or Drs. office. I just could not take them anymore. He ordered x rays and found degenerative disk disease in my neck and upper back, which was nice at least my upper back now matches my lower back LOL Oh by the way my DR apoligised to me for brushing me off for 2 years, guess that is a first too >Is there any relief from this pain at all.

Is there any relief from this pain at all. I have suffered with it for 12 years now and I’m running out of options. Please help if you have tried anything that helped you.

I can certainly sympathize with you. I’m wondering if your neurologist has completely ruled out migraines. Sometimes tension headaches will turn into migraines..that’s the reason I ask. It might also be helpful for us to know what you’ve already tried for your headaches so that we don’t chime in with options you’ve already been through. Personally, when my headaches were more of a tension type..and if they could be caught before they turned into migraines (some years ago), a painkiller and tranquilizer combined would enable me to sleep, and awaken without the headache most of the time. Now that they’re mainly migraines..it’s not nearly that easy..I hope you’ll give us a bit more information, quite a few of us suffer from headaches of all types, and it’s quite possible that someone might be able to help you.
