What Causes Headache And The Ringing Sound Despite Taking Medications?

I have been having headaches mostly on the left side with a numbness type in the left side of my face since August 2013 that is always there round the clock. There is also ringing sound in my left ear sometimes feeling full that i can even hear the sound of my footstep. I also experience pressure in my left eye sometimes with a blurring vision. I also feel imbalance and dizziness as if I am about to fall down at least once in day. I am also very physically tired since 2013 even after having a good sleep. I have undergone Head MRI in April 2014 with normal findings but suggestive of a dehiscence on semi-circular canal. I was told to have a complete blood test, CBC and thyroid test and it all turned out normal. My neurologist prescribed me for a 60-day medication of gababentin, however, on the 46th day I experienced an adverse side effect when one morning, I felt my whole body is numbed like I can t move normaly with blurring vision, imbalance and dizziness. I ask my neurologist and told me to gradually stop taking the medicine. Since then, he did not prescribe any medicine. Another neurologist prescribed me zinarizine for 60-day treatment but nothing has change after the prescribed period. My worry now is that the headache and the ringing sound is getting worst with doctors stopped prescribing medicines based on the result of the head MRI and blood test.

Hi,

For headache, you may take Brufen 200 mg. It could be ocular migraine or it could be due to another cause.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
