Anybody have non-TBI headache claims experience?

[Andyman73]

Hello Vets and Berta!!!

Does anybody out there in Hadit land have any experience with non-TBI related headaches?  I suffered headaches nearly everyday while on AD. And still do.  I never thought it was anything more than stress.  But now I know better, stress does cause headaches, but so do physical injuries. 

I complained of neck pain after I fell down the stairs, but it was less noticeable than the pain in my knees and back.  I do plan on telling the orthopedic specialist when I go, next Monday.

Any advice or comments are welcome.  Thanks

Andy

I am service connected for migraines, I do not have a tbi.  I am rated at 50% which is the maximum.  I was seen many times while on AD for migraines, they were in my records as migraines.

seminoles,

Thanks for replying, while I do have the odd migraine now and then, and at least once while on AD, I was more so looking for info on headaches of the lesser regular variety.  Again, thanks.

I saw somewhere yesterday, before I started this thread, that neck injuries are one of the most common causes of pain related headaches.  And boy let me tell you, this is a constant issue for me. I have to crack my neck all the time, it feels tight and cramped up all the time.  Sometimes I get these sharp jabs of pain that cause a near automatic response of neck cracking, otherwise within a minute of the sharp pain a headache starts to form.
