Friday I underwent MRI testing for the possibility that I have cluster
headaches.
The test was stopped due to metal found slightly above my right eye near the
temple. An immediate x-ray confirmed this.
My question would be: Can the body manufacture "metals" or such? Or, could I
have somehow gotten this metal through the eye, ear or nose and it travel to
this region? Maybe a sliver that has scar tissue around it now?
I had noticed this bump (about the size of a BB) for at least 3 years. I'm not
sure if it has anything to do with the headaches or not. My symptoms do seem to
point to cluster headaches, coming in approximately 2 month bouts once a year.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
