A few months ago I began having daily headaches. I wake up during the night with a headache and again in the morning I wake with a headache! Within a short time I will get another and some I can take Tylenol for and others Tylenol doesn't help.. Most lights can cause or just make them worse. I had a CT Scan and it showed no cause.
Does anyone experience a similar situation?

Headaches and Lupus go hand in hand. The fact that you're waking up with headaches is worrisome, though. See your doc ASAP.

Yes walking hurts I literally feel throbbing with each step had tests dome and found swelling on the optic nerve causing pressure to the skull. No tumor on the brain but it mimics all the symptoms the only thing that works are berry flavored fast acting extra strength bc's. I was told it is called psuedotumor cerebri the headaches are so painful and everyday. I pray you get answers as well as relief.

I know what you mean! My Mom has a Migraine every morning and on and off through the day. She takes a green capsule for Migraines and also 800mg of Ibuprofen. Not really helping. She's getting ready to go to a Neurologist!
