What kind of headache is it.. Describe it to me.. I had tension headaches that lasted for 3 weeks- was stress related. Nearly had a nervous breakdown seriously.. Was awful.

Just a constant pounding across the whole of my head! I'm going to doc to ask for blood tests in the morning :( as much as I hate going to docs! I'm not really stressed about anything tho, which is the most frustrating bit! I've got a few niggles but nothing that would stop me eating and sleeping :(

Yeah go to the docs for sure- get a full blood test done and make sure you write down all of your symptoms before going to the docs so you dont forget anything. Feel better love x

Thank you to you all for the kind words, the doc has prescribed me with some sleeping tablets to help me stay asleep, ad also stomach meds to help with the feeling sick! Fingers crossed eh!

I would suggest trying some relaxation techniques before u go on the beds.. Start off with the tummy pills first- maybe that will give u some sleep..

Have tried relaxation techniques before-I can get to sleep, I'm just fed up of waking up at all hours! Can't take the other meds as they are too big for me to swallow :(

That does the exact opposite! I can't run late in the evening as the endorphins wake my body up even more!! I've been struggling like this on and off for about 6 years, but never as bad as it is now :(

Then keep on pestering the doctor until they send you to a sleep specialist.. Are you tired during the day because of the lack of sleep?

Aww that must be awful :( pls pester the doctor to get this sorted.. U deserve a good nights sleep x
 
For the record! The sleeping tablets suck!!! I took one at 9pm, and went to sleep about 10.30. It says on the packet to allow a clear 8 hours to sleep! I wish!! I was awake at 2, 3.15 and again at sodding half 4!! I'm at a loss as to what to do next :( other than cry :( should I go back to the docs and say 'oi, it doesn't work?' cos I'm meant to be back in work tomorrow and I can't afford to take more time off, but also can't cope with so little sleep :(

I really want to-but I'm so exhausted, I don't think ive got the energy to .( ive got SW at 9.30, which I'll get a lift to, and back, but want to just stay in bed all day :( it's so frustrating as I've got so much I should be doing but just can't do it as failing to function :(
