I have been dealing with a headache since a few days before Christmas. I’ve also been dizzy, extremely tired and frequently nauseous. I chalked it up to stress and other ailments since my rheumatologist brushed off my issues. I saw my neurologist and she suggested an MRI which showed increased pressure. Getting a lumbar puncture Tuesday and hoping this helps.
I haven't had this, but lupus can rarely cause elevated intracranial pressure. In the past, it was thought that birth control and tetracycline antibiotics might be a cause, but it's not definitely linked to these. The lumbar puncture should help confirm the diagnosis and help relieve the pressure, too.
Good luck and hope you feel better soon.
One of my little boys had that😞
I have been dealing with headache to see my Doctor Monday to find out what going on
