Headaches! I've been getting headaches beginning not too long after I wake up in the morning, and they continue on and off throughout the day.
Treatment or advice:
I checked with my doctor, who said Tylenol should help with the pain. Also, I should make sure that I'm drinking enough water. Dehydration can cause headaches.

I get bad Migranes.. they last for days at a time sometimes and I haven't found a cure that's safe for the baby yet... well there is one.. Vicodin.. but I doubt a doctor will perscribe it for your headache.. even though it works.. I had to take it for my back and thats how I found out.. My doctor told me with Vicodin I just had to be careful while using it during the beggining of my pregnancy.. but after the 1st trimester it should be fine.. dont hurt the baby none..
Its not enough to call a pain and a fraction of what I feel if I have a full on migraine. But last night it felt like a thin needle was going into my left temple and it was annoying and a little worrying.

a pulsating pressure that moves around in my head, dr said it happens when there's low or high blood pressure or low blood suger. Sometimes it moves down to the lower neck area.

Basically paracetimol is all that I'm allowed, but luckily it works.

Severe lightheadedness all the time (it feels like I've been drinking or have taken benadryl) but in a bad, debilitating way. I went to ER last Wednesday and they found my potassium to be low. So I've been on a supplement for that. By Saturday things got worse, and I went to ER again...my potassium was improved and they aren't sure of cause. Talked about doing a CT scan of my brain. I called my OB and they can't see me until Thursday-and after explaining to them what I am feeling they said I should go to my family doctor-what!? So I tried to do that-he said I need to be seen by an ENT or a neurologist-what!? These doctors are driving me insane. They've given me meclinzine (anitvert) and it does nothing for me so I am not taking it. I went to urgent care-since my doctor wouldn't see me-and got an antibiotic for a sinus infection. Who knows!? I started on antibiotic yesterday-so we'll see if it makes any difference. I realize some of this is normal for pregnancy but this is just rediculous-I can't even safely work or drive right now!!!! And no one is helping me. I can go back to the ER to have my head scanned and that's about it...
