Always Wake Up With Headache After Sleep. Suggestions?
Question: I wake up with a headache every time I SLEEP. Do you have any suggestions?
dear sir
hello & my best wishes for a speedy recovery.
waking up with headaches in a 68 year male person
my suggestions are
1 check your blood pressure regularly . most of these headaches are hypertensive
2 early morning headaches with/without vomitings needs MRI BRAIN to rule out any
intracranial lesions
3 if MRI BRAIN is also normal , then mostly anxiety depression are the main causes . try some anxiolyics & analgesics
4 . your dinner should be as light as possible . heavy dinner also causes these type of headaches
5 minimum gap betweeen dinner & sleep should be 2 hrs .
6 avoid constipation
thanx
hope this answers your querries

headache not relieved even after heavy analgesics , definitely needs further investigations .
follow stepwise instructions as given by me in previous mail
you can try taking a combination of AMITRYPTYLLINE+ CHLORDIAZEPOXIDE for the time being under supervision of a clinician
