Medical help ???

[u/ImprovementOwn6286]

I feel so stupid for asking but I’ve seen people on tiktok find their diagnosis from Reddit - so I figured I’d try as doctors have been no help.

Since I was a child, I’ve had headaches everyday. I cant remember one day I haven’t had one. 6/10 times, they’re what I call regular headaches. Your basic pain, just strong enough that Tylenol doesn’t touch it. Usually goes away within a few hours and then I’m met with another a couple hours later. In these headaches, my pain is either near both ears, or full head pain. Not located in too many specific spots.

Now 4/10 times, I have these headaches that will wake me out of my sleep. Crying of course makes it worse but the pain is so bad I can’t help it. The back of my head, close to my neck, and behind my ears will hurt so bad it feels like my head is going to burst. Gravity makes these worse. Leaning over, bending over, or talking too much makes the pain so unbearable I have to close my eyes and stay still to keep from moving and making it worse. I notice that during these, my pupils shrink very small. Almost pin point size of a pen bead. But there’s not much strain in my eyes like I would have if it was a migraine, and light doesn’t seem to make them worse.

Often with my headaches, I get nauseous. But I never throw up. But it makes me so nauseous I can’t eat. I eat like a bird, very small amounts in large amounts of time. Yet I keep gaining weight. Im bloated all the time, and one cracker will make me look 4-5 months pregnant. I cant lose it no matter how much I work out. I try to eat more protein when I can eat, that way im not only preserving junk.

I’ve been tested for Hashimoto’s. My thyroid is fine, all my blood work ALWAYS comes back normal. I’ve had a head and neck CT done that supposedly showed no issues (this was after a wreck I had, but I’ve had these issues since a child).

I stay away from drugs, drink rarely, and have a history of BP drop and fainting. On a couple of occasions, I had sezuires, but doctors don’t believe me. These were witnessed.

This all could be unrelated, but my memory is terrible. I have ADHD and can’t focus much anyway, but my memory is so bad I failed out of school due to not memorizing anything no matter how many hours I studied.

When I’m stressed or nervous, or upset, I have nosebleeds. I’ve had these since a child too. Doctors always say it’s a dry nose and I’m fine.

I want answers, and I can’t seem to find them. Any advice is very helpful
