I decided to defer my place at uni due to my daughter not settling at all, I went the first 2 days but couldn't forget my daughter begging me not to leave her at nursery and in the end I spoke to my tutor and told her my situation and now ive been able to defer for 12 months.
Last monday I had a horrible headache, all down the back, crown and forehead at times. It eased off after a day or so but then friday it was back, I had done ALOT of crying and stressing trying to come to a decision about whether to defer or not, my tutor gave me until today to decide so it wasn't a nice week.
Since friday ive had a feeling of pressure on the crown of my head, sometimes it goes into my forehead but its mainly on the crown, down the back and in my ears. Even my shoulders hurt today which I know it typical of a tension headache but I have never had a tension headache affect the crown of my head or forehead. I don't have a cold so I don't think its sinus related.
Of course I am a teeny bit concerned thinking brain tumour or bleed, even though I know id have other symptoms and headaches are usually the last symptom.
I am taking paracetamol but it doesn't touch it. Its not a hammering type pain its more of a feeling of extreme tightness or like my head is full of cotton wool?? last night i even had shooting pains down the back of my head and ears at times.
Last 2 days the tip of my finger on my right hand keeps feeling cold at times, its wierd like its just going very cold then a few seconds later it feels normal??? I did jet wash my car on the weekend and its been abit wierd since then so many its a strain, lol!
I hate headaches they always worry me. What do you think?
