THIS MIGHT SOUND TOTALLY OFF THE WALL BUT I GET SEVERE HEADACHES SOMETIMES BEFORE I FAINT THE HEADACHES ARE SO INTENSE I ALMOST FEEL NUTS?? AFTER THE HEADACHE GOES AWAY WHICH BY THE WAY CAN TAKE ANYWHERE FROM 10 MIN TO 48 HRS I HAVE ENDED UP IN THE HOSPITAL NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS BUT THE VERY STRANGE PART IS AFTER THE PAIN IS GONE I GET LUMPS ON MY HEAD??????????? NO ONE EVER ADDRESSES THIS AND THE DOCTORS LOOK AT ME LIKE IM CRAZY I STARTED TO THINK I WAS I WAS HAVING OTHER PEOPLE FEEL MY HEAD JUST TO MAKE SURE I DIDNT LOSE IT THEY FELT THEM TOO THE LUMPS USUALLY LAST 1 TO 4 DAYS AFTER THE HEADACHE ENDS AND THEY ARE SORE UNTILL THEY DISAPEAR??????????? LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS SIMILAR PROBLEMS ALSO IF ANY OF YOUR DOCTORS ACCOSIATED YOUR HEADACHES WITH VASO-VAGAL BECAUSE MY DOCTOR SAID THE TWO ARENT RELATED???
