Whenever I take opiates (of any variety) for pain I have a headache...sometimes these meds trigger a migraine..I don't take opiates often but there are times when it seems they are neccesary. I've wondered...do opiates cause sinus pressure or increased cranium pressure..anyone else have this problem?...I've asked the docs and they haven't a clue...

No I have not heard 0f that being an issue......but we're all wired a bit different to begin with.

Check your breathing next time to see that it isn't making your breathing too shallow. Lack of oxygen will ache the head.
