After going through by condition my doctor suggested that mine could be a CH headache. I was researching and the following contradiction I found between my symptoms and that of a usual CH.
1. My pain is throbbing, ie its almost like i can feel my pulse on the back of my eye.
2. Pain is not very severe. It just causes discomfort, but nothing more.
3. No - drooping eyelid, pupil constriction, redness of the conjunctiva, tearing, runny nose, facial blushing, swelling, or sweating
4. Its not just the behind the eye and the temple that I get the pain, at times its in the back of the head.
5. The frequency is not 2-8 per day, its much more than that. Its like, I feel a shadow of it in my head most of the time. And mostly when I think of it, the pain starts.
6. On days that I dont work, like saturdays and sundays, I get much less of it.
7. There is no specific time of the day when I get it. I dont it in the mornings, except mornings any other time it can strike.
The symptoms that I have which made the doctor suspect it might be CH
1. It only occurs on the right side of the head in areas - behind the eye, temple and back of the head.
2. Eyes gets watery at times, maybe 5% of the times.
3. It has been there for a month.
Do you guys think this is CH. If not what else can it be?
