in the past week, i have been getting really sharp pains on my head. either right above my right ear, or on the top of my head. it gets to the point where i have to stop what im doing and sqeeze my head tight for it to stop. i havnt been able to sleep because when i lay down and get up, or if i just pick something up off the floor, it hurts really bad. alot ofpeople had told me its from stress, which it most likely is from because ive dealt with alot, but im just not sure. i get bad headaches but nothing like this before.
