How did your ON start and your symptoms?

Hello I know this has been asked many times. I have been miserable since February but I have yet to sched an appointment and get a CT scan to find out if i have ON. Does anyone have these symptoms?

edit: *tender/sensitive scalp but better than before

*dizziness when pain is so bad

*ear ringing whether it's right or left sometimes

*goosebumps on my head

*nausea here and there

*upper abdominal pain but this started happening only months after my first flare ups in February maybe because of anxiety and now maybe i have acid reflux

*something weird in my eyes i cannot explain what i feel just weird and not normal at times

*squeezing head pain lower back and sometimes pain radiates on right top (and throbs) of my head and sides

*eye pain sometimes or stinging pain

*neck pain sides and or back too like feeling of strained neck

*leg weakness sometimes during massive flare up

could this be Occipital Neuralgia? Can someone please tell me your story when it first started occuring? Thank you and may we all be healed.😭🫶

IS THIS OCCIPITAL NEURALGIA?

Hello, I haven't been officially diagnosed yet, but my symptoms are almost identical to Occipital Neuralgia. The headache at the back of my head feels like a twisting pain; I also experience dizziness and a slight weakness in my right leg during attacks. It started around late December or January; things improved around April or May, but it came back—though not quite as intensely as before. However, I’ve been having a flare-up for three days now. I don't have high blood pressure, but it rises slightly when the pain strikes. Is that normal? My stomach hurts, heart rate is kinda fast here and there, upper abdomen and heart burn like pain. Also anxiety. *Sigh.* Thanks.🫶
