More headaches

Well, I’ve now been going to physical therapy for my headaches for a couple of weeks, and while things initially seemed like they were improving, I’ve been having a bit of a relapse this week. I suspect that I’ve been overdoing it a bit, and that three days a week of PT is too much.
My neck has been feeling very stiff and my headaches have returned, which is obviously frustrating. The other development is less an actual change in my state of health and more to do with a realization. It turns out that some people have headaches that do not involve sensitivity to light and sound. I hadn’t really ever thought of headaches that weren’t at least somewhat alleviated by lying quietly in the dark. So I guess all my headaches are migraines, although they’re not to the extent of me seeing auras or feeling nauseous, thankfully. Still, it was sort of an ‘oh’ moment.
I guess this means I should talk to the neurologist about getting some more serious medication for the headaches. One of the things I’d tried seemed to help a fair bit, so perhaps I’ll give that one a more serious run.

Obviously, once the stresses in my life diminish a bit, I’m sure that things will start looking better in general (in terms of tension in my neck and back and head), but I would like to have it so that I don’t immediately get week (or month) long headaches just because life is stressful.
