Oh dear, Mikaylar, I’m so sorry you are suffering so. I am currently doing a 12 week series of 2x weekly acupuncture treatments. I think it has helped. My acupuncturist says acupuncture is a building process, thus the contract to do 12 weeks. Unfortunately I’ve been traveling about half the time so I can only go for 2 weeks on, then I’m gone 2 weeks.
In August, I had a sinus infection with frontal headaches for about 2 months (those sinus pressure headaches did finally go away). I hardly ever got headaches before this.
I originally started Acupunture for relief from 6 months of neck pain. After the sinus headaches went away, I started having another type of headache and head pain, which is worse when I bend over. This has been going on for about a month, starting the day I weaned myself off Gabapentin. I have degenerative disc disease with bone spurs and disc compression in my cervical spine. So these headaches may be related to my neck pain issues.
I’m hoping the acupuncture helps. I get home again on Sat for 2 more weeks of treatments. I was referred to a pain management doctor about 3 weeks ago, have yet to hear from them. Hopefully I will get in soon.
I hope we can both get relief because headaches and head pain are the pits!
Good luck, Jetsetter. However, be careful with pain management. My neurologist at Jefferson Headache Center in Philly told me to not let them give me opioids for pain. Acupuncturist is treating my back and neck too. Hang in there! Mikayla
