Hi, I Have recently been diagnosed with diverticulosis, and bronchitis/sinusitis.

I've been having body aches, really bad headaches, and been feeling a lot of fatigue lately.

I am on cefedinir, and nexium for all of this.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
Not suggestive of brain stroke or heart attacks

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for getting back.

Your symptoms are more likely to be related to migraines. They are not suggestive of heart attacks or stroke.

You may take ibuprofen or diclofenac tablets to relieve headache and body pains.

Best wishes,
