does anyone have any knowledge or experience of headaches possibly caused by Vagus Nerve issues?
my ongoing headaches/earaches seem to be pointing in that direction, and i've been prescribed amitriptyline, which apparently on a low nightly dose acts as a pain blocker. i've also purchased a neck pillow, to allow for correct alignment of the neck/spine as i sleep.
from my memory, the Vagus Nerve affects digestion, and i know that a sudden neck movement can cause fainting if that nerve becomes temporarily compressed.. but i didn't know it could cause the pain i am suffering. any comments would be appreciated.
