Case Consultant: Allan Purdy
Two case studies:
1-Patient with lots of headaches: 49 y/o woman with “attacks” lasting minutes, left sided tearing, nasal congestion & rhinorrhea; up to 17 times per day. Not sure she has ‘headache’ – attacks associated with tingling left throat and coughing. Neurological examination is ‘normal’. CT head scan is normal.
2-Patient with daily headaches: This case is concerned with headache in the elderly. Headaches in the elderly always require a look for a secondary causation. The history is important as on examination there are few clinical signs. Systemic symptoms have to be sought out to make the diagnosis. Failure to diagnose this condition has serious consequences.
