my 10yr old little girl was diagnosed with ADHD and was put on the drug Concerta. She began having seizures and I myself took her off the drug after finding out this drug killed over 900 children. the school was the reason she was placed on medication because they told me that the school would step in and turn me into child protectives if I did not get the ADHD symptoms under control because she was a distraction. is there anyone who could help me in any way? any advice on how to treat or manage the symptoms with out medication?

I am a 38 year old adult taking Concerta. I have serious concerns about the medication as well. Even more so, I have serious concerns regarding those who prescribe it. For a period of time, the dosage they had me on was 3 times higher than I was supposed to be taking. Severe headaches, irritability, possibly even high blood pressure followed. Eventually, I realized what happened, told my doctor, and they said, "oops."

I am not trying to pan the medication itself. When I began taking it, the only word to use to describe the experience was "revelation." it changed my life in a profound positive way. it was the psychologists dosages that messed me up.

I have been curious to try other medications, just to see. the only one I've ever taken has been Concerta.

Are you suffering from regular pain around your eyes? Do you often feel feverish? If the answer is ‘Yes’; then you must try to think a bit seriously. All these symptoms point towards sinus headaches. However, sinus headaches are majorly confused with migraine attacks, but there is a thin line separating the two.

It is not life threatening when it comes to, sinus attacks. Nevertheless detecting the same is not that easy, you will have to follow the trend of headaches to understand sinus.

A sinus headache generally occurs, after every sinus infection phase or somewhat along with it. Whenever people get severe headaches, they tag it as sinus or call it migraine. However, mostly they have very less clarity of the symptoms concerning both. Migraine attacks are very severe and fade out in a day or two after reaching its peak. However, sinus is directly connected to cold and flu so the strain of the headache stays over for more than two-three days.

The headaches normally do not have severe symptoms like migraine, but is accompanied by feverish feelings making you lethargic and sleepy, too. However, one of the most irritating and annoying part of the sinus headache is the continuous heavy feeling around the nose and the eyes region. It is pretty bothersome when you keep having blocked nose and at times even thick discharges during sinus headaches.

The reason behind this is of course the sinus zone and the united conditioning of all the portions. It is only possible to detect sinus by the help of MRI and proper physical diagnosis by the ENT. The headaches that are triggered by the sinus infections are an outward expression of the internal disorder. You will have to understand that the chronic stage have already been achieved when you start getting regular severe headaches.

Sinus headaches keeps the patient feeling too drowsy all through the day and when the infection is a prolonged one then neck and shoulder pains are evident. Constant yawning along with tiredness are the most significant expressions of the severe sinus headaches.
