Last monday I got an exertion headache after my first set of machine flys (at the every end when I go past failure). worst headache i've ever felt. took painkillers and it went away with a couple of hours
Went gym again next day. did chest press to failure, could feel the headache creeping on, did dips to failure and headache was there again (less severe than the day before and went away faster).
I saw a physio on thursday. He said i was tense in the traps/neck/upper back area. did cupping and needling which loosened me up. said if i still had headaches should go GP.
Since yesterday I 'feel' something left front half of my head. it's not pain, but it's like a slight heaviness.
I'm gonna go GP on monday regardless, but assessing myself I realised something about my diet. for the last 2 months, i've been eating 2 can of tuna (190g) and rice for lunch almost daily. double checked this apparently I shouldn't be going over ~115g a week, so at least I'll be cutting this out.
I used to be 55k, have put on 5kg in ~2.5 months and in the gym for the past 6 weeks. huge improvement strength wise, my weights and reps are going up consistently (note: i'm not doing legs at all right now, and i've been in the gym before so there's existing muscle memory), and I'm doing mostly machines with proper form so i'm just a bit surprised if this will be anything muscle/nerve related. full mobility in neck/upper body, no pain or anything.
my only abnormality is my left shoulder blade sticks out (looks winged but it's geting tucked in as my back gets stronger) and it gets tingles randomly (no pain, just like a buzzing sensation) and i find that i'm more sensitive to touch on that side than the right (physio pointed that out as i was ultra ticklish).
kinda pissed because i had such a great routine going, and i'm not risking anything further until neurologist clears me.
