Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache And Dizziness
I had a pacemaker inserted 6 weeks ago..Throughout the 6 weeks I have had a headache in the bake of the head and down my back of my neck..In in addition,I have had some dizzyness. Could this be the result of incorrect pacing or other connections to the pacemaker?

Hello,
Not likely to be related to the pacemaker. However, get a CT of the brain done. If CT is normal, it could be a migraine. For that, start Sibelium. For relief from a headache, take naproxen tablets.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
