View Full Version : Anybody get shooting pains on top of head?
Hey All,
Just wondering if anyone else gets sharp pains on the top of there heads, which is worsened by coughing or bending over.
I've had this for 2 days now, and i am really starting to freak out that i have a brain tumour?
What do you reckon? any advise would be much appreciated!

I get this occassionally, sometimes the pain is so sharp it takes my breathe away. I can get it sometimes when I am bending over or coughing. I'll be honest with you and say that I have no idea why it happens, all I know is that I have had this loads of times for many a year, so I figure that it can't be serious! Are you drinking enough, sometimes dehydation can cause pains in your head, just a thought?
Sorry I couldn't be much more of a help! I'm sure it's not a brain tumour (most BT's don't have head pain as a symptom weirdly enough!)

Hey Mondie,
Thanks for your reply. Im glad it's not only me experiencing these wierd pains - they take my breath away too.
Maybe it's just a trapped nerve or something, probably will be gone tomorrow! fingers crossed!
Thanks for putting my mind at rest, no more dr google for me!

I get this loads and just ignore it now :)
it isnt a brain tumour :hugs:
Hiya - Im so glad im not the only one! I have this like tearing pains on my head, I get a dull achey kind of headache, and sometimes my temples feel like they are pulsating or something...prob me making it seem that way! Thing is I've been concerned as I had a blow to the back of my head 7 wks ago (never been right since...hence ongoing anxiety and panic attacks!!) anyway convinced that I have something major wrong with me that docs have missed I finally get to have a CT scan 3 days ago - and the results were clear..so why am I still anxious and getting head pains! Well..like the others have said it appears due to being dehydrated - the dr said today most important when you suffer this panic disorder is to rehydrate regularly and eat often..and the anxiety seems to cause it.
:hugs:
