<p>I get these horrible migraines that deaden one side of my face. It looks like I’ve had a stroke, seriously. I’ve had all the MRI’s and tests, and I was diagnosed with cluster headaches, which the doctor said is a fancy way of saying they don’t know what causes them. My problem is I get these ‘muscle knots’ starting at my hairline and they go in a straight line to the crown of my head. I swear, if I were bald I’d look like one of those Klingons on Star Trek. I also developed one to the side of my usual ‘ridge’, and the two fibro pressure points on the back of my head also have them now. They feel like bruises- I can’t even brush my hair. I’m on muscle relaxers which seem to help (mostly because they just knock me out) but there’s not really anything else they can do. I was told yesterday by my specialist it was the way my muscles and nerves work around my face and it was part of the fibro. Does anyone else experience anything like this? Does anything work that won’t knock me out?
Yes, I have had the same thing for years.
I currently take epidural steroid injections in my neck and lower back to control the pain.
However, your doctor should know about new meds out there that can control fibromyalgia symptoms. I know that nothing works for headaches and the head pain associated with it.
I haven’t tried any of the new meds, I just get the injections. I can’t say for sure whether they will work for everyone.
Nothing else works for me. But I have all kinds of back problems and soft tissue issues, that is another reason I get the injections.
Sometimes a cold pack works on the back of my neck. I really think Fibromyalgia needs a cure and soon. This pain is the same as cancer sufferers, and those with MS, and other serious diseases.
There are two fibromyalgia websites to check out if you haven’t already. Maybe they can help you.

<p>My boyfriend often tells me about the miagraine-type headaches he would get after orgasms in his previous relationship. Is there anything I could do to help him not experience this in our relationship? If anyone has this problem, have you found solutions or home-remedies?
I had a boyfriend once that had the same thing happen. Never figured it out though. Sorry, this isn’t exactly the answer you’re looking for, but at least you know he’s not alone!
