HELP!

[SFMXKR]

Ok, long story short:
Pain above left eye for over a month now, bearable (just) when upright but if I bend over or lie down it becomes incredibly painful, to the point I'm physically sick. Been to Dr's, E.N.T and Opticians with nothing discovered. Had serveral courses of antibiotics and am on some serious painkillers. Next stop neurology department.

Anything similar happen to anyone or any ideas? Gone on long enough now and would like to get to the bottom of this before it drives me insane.

Good morning!
I've had this earlier this evening and the only thing that helped me was drinking plenty and a sleep!
Don't know if this was the same thing but it made me physically sick

Have a doctor look to see if there's anything lurking behind the eye.if they haven't already.How's your balance?

[RemainAllHoof]

Agree with the drinking of fluids especially as the warmer months are coming. In any case, have you had any scans?

[Driller]

The only significant structure I can think of above the eye is the frontal sinus. Have you had a cold/flu recently?

Or 2 paracetamol and comeback if you don't get better?

Seriously though, sounds like your plan is a better one. Good luck with it all.

Does sound an awful lot like a sinus thing - it's connected to the balancy bit of the ear so could get worse if you change orientation.
