i cant say i know ,, but sounds like you may have a trapped nerve somewhere in your face ,,but MRI will be able to tell ,,if it gets worse i would ring the Doctor ,for pain relief ,, you will be ok the more we worry the worse the pain gets ,ie ,if you trapped your hand in a door at same time as these pains in your head your hand would feel the worse and you would forget head pain hope you know what i mean xxx

Don't know what to say anx mum to help you feel better. I'm sure the MRI will be fine, but I really think you should do something about your anxiety levels. I know you're worrying about all your symptoms and I know they're scary but believe me your anxiety is making it 10 times worse.

You really need some help from your GP to help control your anxiety. Either medication or counselling or both.

Wish you well.
