Last Tuesday I had a very sudden, stabbing pain in my head. Directly above my right eye inside my brain. As soon as it started I lost consciousness for a time (I’m not sure) and when I woke up again I immediately stood up and had to repeatedly tell myself not to die. It was an immediate ‘this is very, very bad’ feeling.
I had a couple of more episodes of very strong dizziness/trying to stay awake and vomited once on the way to hospital.
When in hospital I had a ct and a lumbar puncture - both clear.
Yesterday I had another episode - exact same onset - sudden stabby pain in the same place and instantly feeling a massive rush and dizziness. This time wasn’t as bad because I could talk myself through it and didn’t panic as much which I think helped. I spoke to my GP who thinks it’s a cluster headache with weird presentation but I’m still worrying! The drs at hospital gave no reason for it, just wasn’t going to kill me imminently!
