Weird neck and head pain that comes and goes

[FreakOutQueen]

Hi everyone, for the past 5 days (ever since I got a massage) I have had this weird headache on the left side of my head that comes in waves, lasts 5-10 seconds, and then goes away for about 10-30 minutes and then comes back. I’m worried it’s a non ruptured aneurism. I went for an MRA today and am anxiously awaiting results. Anyone else ever experience anything like this?

I just want to clarify... You went for a massage, started getting these 5-10 second pains in your head and they gave you a couple thousand dollar MRI?

Haha good question! I was due for an MRI because I have an Infindibulum in my brain that I was due for a scan for so the timing worked out.

Ahhh Ok... Sounds like a routine check then. Could be just some scanxiety then.

It’s so strange. So far today I have already had 6 bouts of headaches that last 5-10 seconds and then go away.
