Headache

[annabanana92]

Hi everyone, I have just joined this forum, because I want to discuss a headache I have been experiencing for the past 10 days. When it first happened, I thought it was just a normal headache that would pass over time. It gradually increased in pain, and I thought I may have had an ear infection because my ears has also hurt with it. I went to the outpatients about two days ago and the doctor said that I was having a tension headache, and maybe I should consider seeing an optomitrist. She didn't make much of it and told me to go home and take some tylenol. So I did what she said and yesterday it was going away and I was relieved until today.

The pain is in the back of my head, back of my ears and at the top of my head, it eases off for a little while and then gets bad again. It's been making me feel down and I'm kind of scared because I don't know if it's anything serious. I know the doctors won't send me to a neurologist or anything because she doesn't think it's anything to worry about.

If anyone has any advice for me, it would help soo much!!
