My doctor recently prescribed me Progesterone for 10 days. One of the risks I read was strokes and clots. It made me nervous because I just quit smoking the day before.
So fast forward to today. It's been 4 days of pills and I have a headache. And then I get a headache that is mostly at the base of my head where my head and neck meet. Meds seem to be lessening but not clearing it.
I called my doc and they said that headaches aren't a common side effect, but certainly possible. But they weren't too concerned unless my vision changes. So of course during class it becomes hard to read and I get the brain "zaps".
Now it's there but not as bad. So my question is, has anyone ever had a headache there before? Or taken Progesterone and had this? Or anything? I'm desperate for some help here.
