Does anyone else have a severe headache because of IBS or am I the only one? It got worse not too long ago. I take extra strength Tyenol sometimes for it but my head still kills me! It's worse when I have c. I can barely move my head.

Hi Angel,
I get bad headaches when I PMS and yes I understand the not being able to move your head. For me headaches are not IBS related.
Hope you feel better.

I think it's related to hormones!  Being a woman is not easy, especially one week of every month.

Hi Angel. I do get headaches (sometimes Migraines) and have found that Excedrine Xtra Strength (1) will help with that if I catch it early on. You have to be careful because the meds can really give you the jitters, so I start with one and work up to two if absolutely necessary. I am also on hormone meds but have dealt with headaches/migraines for years. Besides the medication, periodic adjustments by the chiropractor and massage also help me. One thing I've found that has helped me to have fewer headaches is meditational walking. It's a stress thing for me and the walk really has given me amazing results. Good luck.

I too get horrible migraines and have been hospitalized for a few! I have tried many a thing, and the ONE that has cured me is biofeedback. I go to a local biofeedback center. See if you have one in your area. The great thing about biofeedback is that it also helps with IBS and has helped mine a bunch! Hope this helps.
