can migraines cause tingling and burning sensation on top of head?
For the past 5 months, I have had slight pain on the right side along with burning and tingling sensation on the right side of head and jaw. The tingling and burning sensation is sometimes on top of my head as well. I have been to two neurologists that say that this is chronic headaches along with paresthia. Has anyone experienced this? There is not one minute in the day that I am not tingling and burning near my right side of my head, jaw, or on top of head. The only time the pain stops is when I go to sleep and when I first wake up. The tinging and burning starts about an hour after I wake up and continues until I fall asleep. I have had lab reports, hormone tests, thyroid tests, mri of brain which all have been normal. I had a cervical spine mri that showed stenois on the right side. However, both neurologists believe that is not causing my pain. Any stories, thoughts, or suggestions of what to do from here would be helpful
I get right sided tingling not only on my head but down my arm and leg my Do and nuroligest both say this is normal for some migraraine suffers. I will even sometime feel like people are talking to me in a tunnel . But no one has been able to find a medication to provent my migrains and I have been to migrain spec. Every med they put me on I have tarable side effects. I am supose to go to the U of M and see a speciaist their my husband and I are hoping and praying they can help me . I have suffered a migrain ptitty much since april. Some are sever and some are mild. The last medication I tried elavil was the worst . My 10 year old had to call an ambulance because I lost the ablity to use any of my limbs and I could barley talk . This was very scary for my 10 and 6 year old they both thought I was dieing alon with my husband. Is been 2 weeks and my 6 year old still ask me everyday if I am alright he hates leaving me to go to school. My family is at its wits end and we are all afraid of me taking any other proventive medication. The only good thing I have on my side is my mother has a masters in nursing so she helps me alot right know we are living with her and my dad.

I get migraines anywhere from 1 to 3 times a month for about a year now. Well starting yesterday, I got this almost hot, sharp kind of tingling pain in the upper left part of my brain. But it seemed to be isolated to one spot, so much so as I could just point to it. It only happened twice and seemed to flare up when I got hot because I was doing a lot, like vaccuming or laundry. It was really weird and it made me have a mini panic attack. I'd never felt anything like it before. I tried not to think about it and let it go, but this morning it feels like a tingling feeling around the same spot, only it doesn't hurt or feel hot like yesterday. So it seems like a similar thing... only I don't have insurance at the moment so I haven't been to any doctors. There was a point yesterday after the 2nd time where I almost wanted to go to the hospital and tell them to do an MRI on me lol How stupid would I have looked? It did freak me out though...
