Hi everyone,
I updated my Iphone X (Yes I know that had OLED) for an Iphone 12pro.
Awful daily headaches for a couple of weeks until I made the connection to the phone.
Bought an Iphone 11 and things started to ease however the pain reduced to a 5/10 and never went.
I sat at constant 5/10 pain with occasion peaks 9/10 pain that meant I had to lie down and knock back pain killers.
I was diagnosed incorrectly by my GP in the UK and managed to get help through a group called OUCH UK. They are a group who help eachother through a condition called Cluster Headaches and whilst this isnt what I had, their support group have a wealth of knowledge and told me where to go to get answers.
I paid privately to see Professor Ahmed, a headache specialist neurologist who diagnosed me with NDPH (New Persistent Daily Headache) a condition I will most likely have for life.
2 years on I am currently on my 5th different prescription drug (which is helping ok atm). Once this fails, which they all eventually do, I will be having 40 botox injections into my scalp on a monthly basis to see if this works.
My condition is usually brought on by trauma (car crash, head bash etc) but anything can trigger it really and the clinic were really interested in my story as it starts to answer other clients diagnosis in the future.
Long story short. Please give up attempting to make a device work for you if your pain is significant.
I would happily use a Nokia 3310 for the rest of my life if my pain would go away.
Wishing you all the best of health in the future.
