Severe Headaches
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else have swelling at the base of the skull that causes severe headaches or swelling of the optic nerve that causes eyes swelling shut and migraines?

I have been having base of the skull headaches, my rheumatologist didnt really say anthing other than to take the gabapentin my meurologist prescribed to see if it helped. I’ve had iritis which causes a really res eye, headaches, and blurry cision. There are steroid eue drops amd a dilating eye drop my eye dr gives me an rx for. Hope you find some relief

I've had mine for 18 years they tried to say that my eyes swelling and headache was caused by pinkeye and gave me the drops for it just caused my eyes to completely swell shut and cause the worst migraines I have ever had for a week straight after only using the drops one of time

Yes, I have back of head swelling and severe headaches. I had an occipital injection of steroids and that helped, my neck hurts when I turn my head. Possibly from late effects Covid, never had before having bout of Covid.
