Headache, Cluster On Right Temple When Being Out In Sun With Blurred Vision. Help From Diclopar. Suggest

hello, my name is beaty...i usually have a headache, cluster i think on my right temple whenever am exposed to strong sun for a while... my vision becomes blurred a bit, i usually wear glasses as i cant really tolerate strong sunshine. i take diclopar as its the only med that really ease the pain. when the headache starts on the leftt side of the head, it usually goes away after a couple of hours of rest so i dont really take the meds, but when its in the right side, i have to take even two tabkets of diclopar a day, just to make the pain go away... what should i do?

Hello,
Thank you for the query. I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. The symptoms you have mentioned are like photosensitivity which we usually see in cases of migraine and it will be unilateral headache. I suggest to take prophylaxis for this and you can see interval for sometime after the prophylaxis. I advice you to take tab.topiramate but as it is a prescription drug you need to consult your doctor for this. Thank you.
