severe severe headache

My head hurt s sooo sooo bad. It hurts to walk around. It almost makes me nausous. Ugh, I just want to lay down and try to sleep it off but I have 3 kids.
I know I sound like a hypocondriac but this is totally for real. Could this be from my new pill?
First this morning I was itchy, on the arms and on my face and then I had this headache start and just get worse and worse. It hurts to move and makes me dizzy, it is like behind my eyes. I have never had migrane sbefore.
Am I jus tsick or what?

hello,
i was just lurking and noticed your concern. i started taking bc after dd was born 3 yrs ago and right after that i started getting headaches. i would have one almost every day. i oct i had to have emerg surg and was in the hosp for 3 days. while i was there i did'nt take my pills. anyway, while i was waiting to start my cycle again i noticed that my headaches were gone. i am sure that they were from the pills. i feel so much better since i stopped taking them. also while being off bc my sex drive has gone through the ROOF!! on the flipside af is really really bad. i talk with my ob and we are going to try a pill with a lower dose a estrogen. i think that there are pros and cons you just have to find the one that works with your body chemistry. hope this helps:) good luck!!!

Hi Beck,

Hi there,
I agree with everyone else. I used to get hormonal migraines, but as soon as I tried the BCP, I had bad migraines from the day I started them to the day I stopped (I tried one for two weeks, then tried another one for two weeks - both gave me migraines).
The itching could very well be caused by your BCP as well. Let us know how you got on with the doctor.
