3) I have adhesive arachnoiditis,
(on top of 12 levels of ruptured disks- 7 surgery sites-20" of spine surgeries,
with concomitant nerve damage to some) which causes severe intolerable pain. AND
migraines. Add to that, apparently, some possible analgesic rebound effect, from
being on narcotics for 13 years for the spine surgeries.... Alex.

4) The question I have is how do I
deal with E.R. doctors that treat me like I am a drug addict? There are a couple
of doctors who have sent me home and I was still in severe pain and throwing up.
I have to admit one or two are decent about the headaches. These headaches
interfere with my education and daily life. What can I say to the doctor to get
them to understand.

8) Please help me. I have been
getting headaches at night for the past year. I have had migraines since the age
of ten but these are different. It is a feeling of pressure, it feels like my
head is going to explode. It hurts to lay on the soft pillow and it feels like I
am laying on a hard surface. I get them after I go to sleep every night, some
nights are worse than others... Mary Ellen.
