Constant headaches after surgery

I had to have a d&c on 8th May and since the 10th I've had a constant headaches that's moving around my head I can't shift almost like migraine like pain, feels like my heads a bit swollen inside as I can occ feel slight pressure it's very odd, I do suffer from hormonal migraines but my meds haven't shifted it, I saw a dr 2 days ago who wasn't concerned. I'm just 39 and no other health issues. Sharper pains come intermittently like shooting pains, I have noticed my spelling has really gone off the last two days and having to really read what I'm writing before I hit the send button as occ muddled words in the msg I'm trying not to be concerned but i just wish it would stop it's been never ending for almost 2 wks now. I was put under general anaesthetic prob for 30 mins but I don't know as I was quite out of it for a good couple hrs after I woke up.

It is making me feel a bit dizzy and disoriented like a migraine does, the dr wasn't hugely concerned and thinks it's likely just hormones trying to settle it just feels like it's never going to stop I can believe how many days it's gone on for, I usually respond very well to triptans but not shifting it. It does seem to be moving but is mostly at the top left hand side. And the shooting feeling feels very intense at times and tbh a bit unsettling!

Maybe try going into A & E will get you a better response. Could be a blood clot for all your doctor knows. Most likely though it is just migraine, I had it for about 2 months once. At the very least you might get some good painkillers for it. Hope you feel better soon

I think I'm going to have to it's such a pain, it's th same pain in mostly the same area, it's so strange. It feels like it shoots over the area and is very noticeable. It's just been so many days now also I'd have expected it to have gone by now. I really hope it isn't anything serious but I think I'll have to go down there as it's worrying me a bit now as it's jjsy not going away. Thank you
