I have been vaxed and boosted and am very SPIKED_but I came down with Occipital neuralgia

[demtenjeep]

Occipital neuralgia is a distinct type of headache characterized by piercing, throbbing, or electric-shock-like chronic pain in the upper neck, back of the head, and behind the ears, usually on one side of the head. Typically, the pain of occipital neuralgia begins in the neck and then spreads upwards

I have been given a med they give to epileptics there are 57 pills in the jar and 7 refils

also prednisone


merry christmas to me and happy f'n new year


this started a week ago. if it were not covid----I could have easily gone to the ER every night for a shot for the pain but cause covid.................

1. I guess it could have been worse..... could have been shingles

f'n covid.

I suffered needlessly for a week

2. True, but still - no fun. Hope the meds control, or get rid of it.

3. Ugh. I've been suffering with that for most of this year

and have not had Covid. Started before my vaxs.

4. What caused yours?

I am a diabetic???

[vanlassie]

8. No idea. Have had CT scan. Prednisone no real help.

Was sure I had a brain tumor until scan. Arthritis in neck….

6. In case you are interested: there is an FDA approved CBD oil called Epidiolex and it is

manufactured by GW Pharmaceuticals. It is an orphan drug for treatment of epilepsy. Those in the trials are seeing amazing results. Even if you do not have epilepsy you say you are being treated with meds for epileptics. Maybe you want to discuss with dr.

CBD could be a real asset!

9. I honestly believe that marijuana (THC) is overrated. IMO CBD oil works fantastic on pain and

inflammation, and as we are finding out, on other ailments, too.
