Hi All
I have had a throbbing head ache pretty much non stop since last monday. It's in the top right of the front of my head and has at times this week, made me need to go lie down. Bending down or leaning forwards makes it worse. It doesnt wake me up at night but in the morning it comes on about half and hr after I wake up. It is tender to touch that part of my head now but I dont know if thats because Ive been rubbing it.
Last October, I was at work when suddenly, on the same side, a massive headache struck. It made me vomit immediately. I ended up in hospital, had a brain CT and they saw no bleed and all was normal. The headache lasted about 3 days and went. Ive had minor headaches on and off since then.
But this one is so upsetting. I feel sick with it and dont want to eat. I also have gynaecological problems and was in hospital during the week overnight (they couldnt stop me bleeding but I have now). I did mention I had this headache but they just kept giving me paracetemol (which sometimes works and sometimes doesnt). I rang my gp this morning, they cant see me until tomorrow.
Im so scared. Its always there. I know I have been very stressed these past few weeks but surely this stabbing, throbbing pain in the same place cant result from that?
Would a tumour have grown in the 4 months since my last ct? Is it possible to have a bleed for a week? My blood tests (for gynae things) showed no inflammation or infection anywhere in my body. Im so scared I want to phone 999 and I feel dizzy and sick.
Please help if you can
