???
I WAS TOLD TODAY I MIGHT NEED A CT BRAIN SCAN AS I'M HAVING HEADACHES 24/7 AND NO AMOUNT OF PAINKILLERS HELPS. I'VE BEEN TOLD TO STOP MY HYDROXYCHLORAQUINE FOR A WEEK AND IF I'M STILL HAVING HEADACHES THEN NEED A CT SCAN BUT RHEUMY DIDN'T SPECIFY WHY.....
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHT I'D NEED A SCAN FOR THE HEADACHES?
THANKS FOR ANY HELP XXX
dont know why the scan, but i know one of the symptoms of sjs is headaches.
I only know that when I complained to my eye doctor years ago about headaches he orders ct scan of my head.. and as he put it. " I didnt find anything "
Cport, He is probably being very cautionary, making sure that there is nothing suspicious ,
such as tumours or inflammation or such .
Catscans can easily identify any trouble that might be lurking , so be assured he is going down the right path.
You'd worry more if he diden't do anything about. It will also relieve your worries too..
Good Luck my friend and get back to us soon..Dolly x
