Members confirmed that headaches are indeed a common symptom, with many experiencing everything from daily tension headaches to severe migraines, often linked to inflammation around the eyes and face, sinus issues, or neck problems like bulging discs and bone spurs. Several members shared treatments that have worked for them, including Excedrin with low-dose prednisone for inflammation, Ajovy injections as a preventative biologic, Sumatriptan for acute migraines, magnesium supplements paired with diet changes that eliminate preservatives and processed foods, and ENT treatments to drain chronic sinus congestion. A recurring theme was the importance of recognizing that even daily low-grade headaches can be migraines worthy of treatment, advocating with doctors for appropriate medications or interventions, and exploring root causes like neck issues or inflammation rather than simply enduring the pain.
