Hi all I have been having headaches from

Past few days. It’s mostly in the front and sometime over my nose. At times it moves to the back. Sometime Advil helps but it stays there. My oncologist is not concerned but I feel scared. I am triple positive and will finish my herceptin/perjeta in January. Any suggestions friends. I feel so scared

    Sorry you're having the headaches and worry. Is it possible you have a sinus infection? Do you wear glasses, and could you be experiencing eye strain? If you don't think sinuses or eye issues are likely, and you continue to have headaches through 2 weeks, then be insistent that you are seen. If sinus or eye problems are possible, then please see your PCP and/or eye doctor. Good luck.

    Thank you so much MountainMia. I will get these things done. The pain just does not go away with Advil:(

    It could be nothing, but then it could be something. If it keeps up I'd definitely discuss more with your MO. I started having headaches on a fairly regular basis, and that was unusual and different for me. That led to a brain MRI, which showed cancer on my dura. I hope that is not the case for you. Best wishes.
