Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 54-year-male. I am a sugar patient. I have sudden pain at the back side of the head, and I had the same problem at five years back. Yesterday he went to the hospital, and the doctor suggested a tablet Amitone (Calcium carbonate) 10 mg at 8 pm for one month. After taking this tablet from early morning to evening, I feel lazy, with body pains. Can I continue this tablet?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com. It is essential to rule out the cause of the headache first and foremost and to see whether these physical symptoms he has now are related to the headache or medication. Since it is at the back of the headache, I would strongly suggest getting a computed tomography (CT) scan done to rule out anything serious. Secondly, does he have any weakness in the limbs, or is it just feeling lazy? If there is any weakness in any part of the body, the ct scan is again essential. If there is body ache, then I suggest give it a few days. It should subside. I hope this helps.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
