Currently 37 weeks pregnant and now on maternity leave thank goodness! However have developed a pretty horrible headache. It's started yesterday at around 10pm and is still going strong. Have now taken my forth dose of paracetamol and it's still not abating. Definitely not a migraine (and is clearly not stopping my MNetting on phone in a dark quiet room) but I think I may have problems if I tried to go outside or drive etc Have called GP and maternity hospital who suggested I could come in for observation but that they are very busy and as its only a headache with no other symptoms it would be a very very very long wait (i.e don't be so ridiculous and waste our time). Thing is.... just before headache appeared I had given a small sebaceous cyst above my ear and pretty forceful squeeze. TMI sorry. Surely the two can't be connected? I should have told them this on the phone i think, but at the time thought it would be completely irrelevant but maybe it's not???
I have a particularly tempestuous toddler due home in a few hours so really not sure if should brave maternity hospital or wait for a GP appointment later in the week at this stage in pregnancy?? WWYD?
