Could several decayed teeth be causing you to have dizziness and headaches for several months if several cat scans have shown there is nothing wrong?

Do the decayed teeth have fillings? Did the doctor do a mercury test? Old filings had mercury, and when they leak alot they can cause mercury poisoning. Some of the symptoms you listed fit the description. Otherwise, depending on the amount of decay your body is fighting the infection and people and their immune system respond differently.

What may cause severe knifelike pain in right hemisphere of head that feels like a stroke stops after a minute or so and leaves a residual flu-like feeling and headache on right side for days after?

There is something called "ice pick migraines" which feel very much like someone has literally jammed an ice pick through your head. They last fewer than 5 minutes (mine last for less than 30 seconds) but cause such blinding pain. Although I do not exhibit flu like feelings or headache afterwards with these I do get them with regular migraines... speak to your doctor if you don't feel well soon... there is medication you can go on if the migraines are persistent... and troublesome... when I get them I will get 40 or more in a day but then they go away for months at a time.

You could be pregnant, but if you are on birth control it can make you feel sick too. I took about 3 or 4 different types of birth control brands before I found one that didn't make me sick.Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include missed period, tender/swollen breasts, change in color of the breasts, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, increased sense of smell, and weight gain.

Does Equate Extra Strength Headache Relief interfere with thyroid medications?

Yes, in a couple of ways.

1) If you take them at the same time. Thyroid medications are meant to be taken alone, 30 minutes before you eat or digest anything else.

2) If aspirin (which is in Equate Extra Strength Headache relief) is used for even one week, the thyroid hormones they are looking for on tests (T3, T4 - both total and free, and TSH) will be lower. So, taking aspirin may not interfere with your thyroid medication, but it does interfere with how your thyroid is performing.

It should be noted that in some thyroid patients, specifically, those who have a normal thyroid except for low T3 or T4, taking thyroid hormones with acetaminophen can set you up for liver damage.

Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and Naproxen (Aleve) are safe alternative pain relievers which have not been shown to interfere with thyroid medications.

What causes headaches diarrhea rectal bleeding abdominal pain and rectal soreness?

Just got over a 4-day bout with gastroenteritis, probably caused by contaminated food. You just described the hell I've been through. You didn't mention intestinal gurgling. You could hear my intestines gurgling, growling, and moving things along from the next room. Gold Bond Medicated powder is working for my rectal bleeding/soreness (caused by days of diarrhea). I just read a website that recommended Tinactin for the same. I bet the headache is caused from dehydration (or caffeine withdrawal--you either stopped drinking coffee because you don't feel good and want to stay in bed, or the caffeine you ARE drinking isn't being absorbed as much because everything is moving out of your system too quickly). Drink LOTS of fluids and add some probiotics to your diet (supplements or yogurt) to replenish your good bacteria.

When you have a headache, your body is generally trying to tell you that something is wrong.

If you sleep whilst having a headache, this may cause it to worsen especially if all you need to do is have some water. Also taking a headache tablet will just mask the pain not target the source.
