I've had this 24/7 for eight years... been to the neurologist, got the MRI (clear), tried topamax (no help)... I'm nearly resigned to living it for the rest of my life at this point. It is very...
I've been watching this thread for a few days now. Just now I decided I had to finally post. I think a certain line of questioning here has gone far enough. No one here should deny anyone else's...
Dear DLee, I really appreciate your response. As you can see I'm still here, still have the same exact head pressure, virtually 24/7. Eight straight years of it, and it's caused a lot of...
I was on it for a month, eventually up to 75mg. I had the same concerns as you, especially about the risk of seizures, because of a family member's epilepsy. Eventually I got over the fear, though....
klk8251 , I have something very similar, except mine has been generally 24/7 for nearly 8 years. I also don't usually have the dizziness, but I do have the fatigue. Alcohol can make the pressure...
Jules, How would you describe your headache? Migraine symptoms, classic headache, head pressure? If it was head pressure, was the sensation constant? I am a consistent coffee drinker, but I'm not...
Gator, Unfortunately, no updates on my part. If you can refresh my memory, how long were you taking daily Flexeril, and how long (roughly) did the relief last? So I see the headache came back, and...
I've had constant head pressure for almost 8 years. Mine is 24/7 but it doesn't usually cause pain, just a lot of discomfort and aggravation. There have been a number of folks who've been to this...
Let's say it's "soon," as in I still have to call them, but usually it doesn't like long for me to get in. I'm sorry to hear about the muscle test, I hope I'll never have to get one of those. I'm...
Fiercygoat, Are you the author of the "suggested books" or do you perhaps work for the publishing company? In other words, it looks suspicious. Virtually all of your posts here so far contain...
Gator, No, I have not been to a dentist for bruxism or clenching. I don't think I grind my teeth, or at least it has never been suggested to me by anyone. However, I'm an anxious person and I do...
Gator, In a sense, I almost want to see how your "leg weakness" plays out, before I try Flexeril myself. I have a doctor who will write a script for me if desired. My problem--constant head...
Gator, Let us know if the weakness/tiredness clears up. Who knows, it might be related to stopping the Flexeril, and could take a week or two before it goes away. Or maybe not. Either way, let us...
Gator, Is pressure in your head and/or neck one of your symptoms? If so, has Flexeril given you some relief from it? -Batman...
Gator, My problem is 24/7 head pressure. I took Skelaxin (muscle relaxer) for a few days a while back, when my neuro prescribed it along with the Medrol steroid dose-pak. I didn't notice any relief,...
