Hi,
I've managed to be relatively panic free for a few months. I've finally managed to get a job, and seem to be doing well.
Whilst I was at work today I got a sudden headache that lasted maybe 10 seconds, it made me wince (tenseing my face etc), then went and about every 5 minutes to every hour I've been getting it again. Lasting between 3 and 30 seconds.
This is really scaring me, 2 people my friends / family know have died in the last year suddenly of brain aneurysms rupturing.
I'm terrified that if I go to bed to night I won't wake up.
The pain is focused on either side of my head I'd say 3 or 4 inches above my ears. Sometimes the sudden stabbing bolt-like pain is only on one side sometimes both.
I've had similar headaches in the past, like a massive explosion in my head, I think they're called ice pick headaches.
I'm really scared.
Anyone had anything similar?
