A member asked:
Have had headache, head pressure, tinnitus neck pain, blurry vision and tachycardia for three weeks. what could this be from? csf leak?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intractable migraine: In CSF leak the headache is worse when you sit up and improves when you lie down. Visit ER. Many clinicians consider parenteral administration of DHE 45, (dihydroergotamine) ketamine, lidocaine, other agents to be a very safe and reasonable treatment for intractable migraine. Good luck.
