Question: temporal headache, eye, neck, and SCM pain. Suggestions?

Answer:

Dear Becky from Pa:
I have had great success with a medication called tizanidine (Zanaflex), especially if sleep is interrupted by headaches and neck tightness/spasm. Talk to your headache doctor about it.

Good luck,
John Claude Krusz
