Combination Headache
Fibromyalgia combination headache is basically the combination of muscle tension headache and migraine. It is very common for fibromyalgia patients to suffer from both muscle tension headache, resulting from tensed muscles, and migraine, triggered by the lack of sleep, stress, or low serotonin levels, at the same time. Combination headache can exhibit many symptoms at once hence making it especially debilitating. A person who is having combination headache would find it difficult to rest or relax. He or she would feel pain spreading to the head and may also experience nausea, dizziness and sensitivity to light, noise or smells.

I’d like to add another horrible headache feeling to the list. Sometimes my head & back of the neck will feel like all the nerves are just alive & “screaming”. It can envelop my head, and when it goes across my forehead, that’s when I can no longer really think well and don’t want to move. I get very quiet if I try to speak at all. I would try and rest through it, except that closing my eyes makes the pain worse, as if just the muscles of the eyelid are enough to pull at the pain in the forehead, it’s horrible.
