Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I ve had a bad headache since 12/4/17, along with a strange, unpleasant smell in my nose, and some nausea and vomiting. I ve been to the hospital and had a CT Scan and EKG, which were negative. An MRI is scheduled for next week. What do you think this could be?
Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern. I think that your symptoms are related to migraines. Some advices that I can give to you are: -Try pain relievers. Aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) may help relieve mild migraines. -Triptans. These medications are often used in treating migraines. -Try Ergots. -Try Anti-nausea medications. Try glucocorticoids (prednisone, dexamethasone) If you don't get better see a neurologist. Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
