Avatar m tn Usually you have other symptoms though. Also, have you had a brain scan like an MRI or Cat scan to see if there are any abnormalities there? Have you seen a neurologist?
Avatar m tn Hi, Thank you for your question. For persistent headaches, possibilities like migrainous, cluster, tension, pinched nerve in cervical spine and refractive errors that need to be evaluated thoroughly with the help of a neurologist here. Migraine like headache can be throbbing, one sided of face & head and preceded by aura (starts with blurred vision). Cluster headache may appear as burning, explosive in nature and tear appears from eyes.
Avatar n tn ve had on again, off again tingling in the right side of my face and and in both hands and feet (though more prominent in right side). I had an MRI with contrast of my head about 2 months ago and my Neurologist said it was clean. I also have considerable fatigue, brain fog and some cognitive issues. All of this kicked off about 6 month ago after a severe case of strep throat. I've been looking into post viral fatigue and Lyme, but I want to feel confident about the negative MS diagnosis.
Avatar f tn Hi fellow Ozzie, welcome to our little MS community, Please keep in mind that we are lay people, not professionally trained in reading MRI's, opinions are generally from personal experience, acquired knowledge and interest, my two cents......
Avatar f tn Where to start, approx 4 years ago i was sitting at my friends home when suddenly I experienced what I can only describe as the most horrific pain in the right side of my face, from the side of my nose across my check bone and radiating through my ear, it lasted approx 4/5 seconds, it felt like a burning electric shock, (I was frozen with the impact and sheer force that this pain hit my face, I would of certainly fallen to my knees If I were not already sitting at this time!
Avatar m tn W/a/J is right about contrast. I just meant, get whatever type of scan the doctor orders. But yeah, if they're looking for a cause of dizziness or hearing loss with an MRI, contrast IS needed.
Avatar f tn December 26th I have gone for MRI Scan about my spine problem, before me one women took MRI Scan test for brain and later I took the test however I have noticed some blood in my middle finger, I don’t know where it was came to and I have noticed small pimple in my face with blood. Just now I came to know that she was infected with HIV positive. I don’t know whether she is bleeding blood or not.
Avatar f tn How was the CT scan? Do you still have headaches and numbness in your face? Headache is a common result of head injury and it might persist for months or years following even mild head trauma. However, the frequency and severity of the headache usually diminishes with the passage of time. If it has been 17 years, the cause may be attributed to other issues that need to be evaluated further. Take care and hope to hear from you soon. Best regards.
Avatar n tn I woke up this morning and noticed immediately that it felt like I had on a pair of tight sunglasses on the left side of my face. This is the best way that I can explain the way that the numbness feels. My left ear is completely numbness as well as all along behind it. I can also tell that my left side of my face is numb but it isn't as bad as from my ear back. Has anyone ever had this just happen out of the blue? Can you tell me what it might be?

3190218 tn?1344905371 Hi, I always get face numbness or pins and needles in the whole of my face when I have a migraine. I have always accepted that it is part of it.
Avatar f tn I went for an MRI of brain it showed a posible kink in blood vessel then they had me come back and did a coranary artery brain scan of neck and head. It showed nothing wrong no kinks no nothing. Are MRi's acurate? I have had this weird sensation on left side of head for 2.5 months. it's so annoying. iT's like a pressure feeling. Seems like it stemming from base of skull on left side. My jaws are tight too plus I get a twinge of pain in left side of tempe mostly when bending down.
Avatar f tn They performed a CT scan on her and some blood tests, all of which turned out to be normal. Today she had other blood test done (EBvirus, Herpes Zoster) but the results are not in yet. The only thing that is a little "abnormal" for her, is that her hemoglobin was over 15. She also has Rheumatoid Arthritis. Does anyone know of a condition, or a treatment for symptoms like these ones? Thank you!
Avatar f tn I was punched on the left side of my face about 3 wks ago while trying to apprehend an offender. It's still very tender and numb under the eye, on the cheek, the left side of my nose, upper lip and upper gum on the left. I went straight to the hospital from the incident and was given a cold-pack because my eye was really red and swollen. The dr's prognosis was "facial contusion" & I was given ibuprofen & that's it.
Avatar f tn I am not having any other symptoms than my left temple/eye/cheek has sensitive/tender skin, my eye hurts when I close it and I sometimes get a dull/aching pain from the back of the left side of my head all the way to the point of my left cheek bone. I do feel a little disoriented at times, I kept waking up the night before last not really realizing what was going on and feeling like something was weird in the room... but nothing was different other than my closet door being left open.
Avatar f tn I have MS, diagnosed in 1992 with a dozen lesions on my brain. In 2005 the MRI report said to many lesions to count! I just want to know why all of a sudden I'm experiencing this burning sensation??? I'm afraid for the next brain scan??
Avatar m tn What is this numbness i get on the left side of my body? my face and hand go numb and it scares the life out of me, i take migraleve when it starts an they do help, but is this numbness serious? hope you can help, thank you.
Avatar n tn my mom's mouth moved overnight to the left of her face. I don't know whether it's a medical condition that can be treated by medicine or just hope, i've heard of this subject before but i'm not sure whether everybody knows about it...please help!
Avatar f tn This began in November whilst at work, stressful morning sudden left arm pain high blood pressure, I thought heart attack ECG normal, hospital thought stroke pain in leg and arm side of face fluctuating sensations memory problems. CT scan Heart scan Mri scan head normal. Off about five months simptoms seemed to improve although still weakness left side loss of feeling in parts of body.
Avatar n tn After a head injury in 99, I had pins and needles on my face and headaches, still have the headaches and face pain now. I was told it is migraine. However, I had a brain MRI and discovered I'd had a stroke and an MRA confirmed where an artery was dissected. I did not get the proper treatment at the ER, and I think it was because of my age and no obvious outside trauma. I first saw an ENT that was convinced that I had Menieres disease.

382218 tn?1341181487 Hi, I mentioned this probably a couple of years ago now, and am only now getting around to dealing with it. I'm awating an appt for a CT scan to check out my deviated septum and find out whether surgery will correct it. I'm not so concerned about getting the procedure if it will help. Just wondering if any of you have had this done, how was the recovery and do you notice a big difference afterwords? Any bad experiences with this?
Avatar n tn I indeed have suffered from auras and migraine and now feel a lot less worried about the presence of plaques on the mri scan of my brain. Thank you for being very helpful.
