Headaches

Hello everyone 

 

I had my first chemo a week ago and was very lucky very tired but not sick, a week later all my steroids and injections have ended and I can't shift this terrible headache, it's been a whole day now, I've drank lots and taken paracetamol and have had a sleep and still it's there. I can hear every little tick and noise it's driving me crazy.

  • Hello Hine76,

     

    Sorry to hear that you are having terrible headaches. 

     

    I had the same on my first chemo. I was tired for 5 days, no sick but very bad headaches for 3 weeks. I tried resting, water, painkillers; nothing worked. 

     

    The only thing that worked was the yoga spiky mat. I have this mat for ages and used very rarely. I used it during my chemo to relax better, the headache was gone after a day. I lir down on the spiky mat for over 30 mins. 

     

    I used it several times during my chemo. It has helped me. 

     

    Please speak to ur CNS so they know if you decude to use it. 

     

    I hope headache goes very soon
