Sleeplessness and constant headache > Insomnia since 2010 & Neurologist did MRI scan diagnosed weakened nerves in back of head near neck. Get feeling of needles pricking into brain. Feel pain if someone massages head. Feel frightened with dawn and during sleep I wake up with a terror shock due to recurring nightmares. Recent conversations or old things/acts keep repeating in mind > Background: Since 1990: Feeling of constipation started 2000: Operated and uterus removed Since 2010: Travelled flight for first time - since then insomnia started. Kept on taking medicine for sleep but no proper diagnosis 2012: Some doctor mis-diagnosed that you BP is the root cause and started treatment for BP. But BP became higher due to treatment ? hence after 15 days, stopped all medicine and BP became normal ? since there was?t ever any such problem 2013: Insomnia continued and hardly got any proper sleep 2014: Neurologist recommended CT scan/MRI scan and diagnosed weakened nerves in back part of skull near neck. Medication continued for a year without much benefit 2015: Due to constant feeling of constipation went to gastroenterologist who recommended Thyroid test and for first time realized that TSH was 19! Much above limit of 5 ? all these years. 2016: still no treatment for insomnia and feeling of needles pricking into brain. Tongue hurts when touched and Feel a lot of pain if someone else does hair-oil massage on head. Off-late knees have started to pain a lot, though there has been slight increase in body weight. 2017: Start feeling frightened with dawn and as soon as I try to sleep, I wake up with a terror shock. Nightmares keep on re-occurring. Recent conversation with anyone keeps on repeating in mind. I think a lot about what people did and say ? today, yesterday or 20 years ago. Everything keeps on repeating in mind and mind is all chocked up. Sleeplessness since so many years has taken its toll on my health.
