Did anyone else have headaches during the plateau and recovery phase of their GBS? I keep getting frequent headaches that aren’t too painful but enough to notice. I’d say I probably get close to everyday in the afternoon during work and have occassionally woken up with a slight headache near the front of my head. My MRI was perfect. Is it possible it could also be the neurontin?
The side effects for this drug can be worse than the pain. My headaches don’t always correspond to when I take the neurontin though.
I did not get headaches. Hope you get this one figured out. I do recall feeling about 20% out of it from the medication I was taking. Nebretta
I also have headaches daily. Wake up with them too. Had Ivig in May of this year.
What do you think causes your headaches?

I had headaches before I was diagnosed, during and after treatment until the day before I was discharged from the hospital
I had headache too, my dr said maybe its muscle pain from lying down too much since i was hospitalize with dengue two weeks prior total of 3 weeks.
I had/have tension headaches now, never really had a headache in my life before this. I'd get a pressure each side of my head above my ears, like a clamp was on my head.
I know the feeling. I don’t want to ever have that headache again. It was driving me nuts

In terms of what causes the headaches - and I'm only speculating here I'm not a doctor - I had bad problems with my blood pressure. Once when I happened to be in the GP's office and told him I felt a bit funny, he took my blood pressure which was down to 70/42.
After that I kept a good eye on it, I never really had high blood pressure, just low and it would wax and wane. I ate a lot of salt, carrying bags of peanuts round with me to munch on to try and boost my blood pressure.
I believe that the tension headaches were a symptom of the blood pressure fluctuating. Again, I have no evidence of this other than a hunch, but if you're having headaches perhaps you should get that checked?
I have not gotten a headache for a few weeks thank God
