Suffering With Miagraines Caused By Barametric Pressure Changes With Neck And Abdominal Pain. Recommendations?
I have been suffering with Miagraines for years mostly caused when barametric pressure changes rapidly. Now I have neck pain and was going to physical therapy which does not seem to be helping. Hard to get out of bed because my neck hurts to hold my head up. Heat therapy does help ease it a little. Now I am having strange abdomal pain off and on. sharp pains that hit me about every 5 to 7 minutes.

Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Headache can be caused by several medical conditions. As you are having medically unexplained pain complaints in 2 different reason, then there is need to rule out stress and anxiety induced muscle spasms in your case.
Common precipitating factors for headache and migraine:
-Stress and anxiety: Stress or psychological upset was the commonest triggering factor.
-change in weather and pressure change
-High blood pressure
-fasting
-Sunlight
Relieving factors:
-NSAID medicines
-Sleep
Before diagnosing migraine. It is better to get yourself evaluated by general physician and psychiatrist to rule out other causes of headache (specially stress and anxiety) and then seek consultation according to their recommendation.
Wishing you good health and all the best.
