Change in headaches

Hi all! So I have been on like a 5 day migraine. It finally started easing up a few days ago until last night. I went to bed and suddenly have really sharp pain. It has lasted all day today as well. I have never had this type of headache/migraine. 


It's mostly on one side, and to give a visual, it's almost like a cracked hardboiled egg type pattern. One side a couple places and one long pain on the other side. Also behind one eye off and on.


Any ideas? 


Thank you!

Sounds absolutely horrible. If you are concerned about the change in pain, I would go see your doctor. That being said, migraine pain can change. I don't know if you ever experienced or noticed change in pain location or intensity due to weather, but just recently that has been happening to me. My migraines are always one-sided, but every time the summer approaches, my migraines become double-sided and I can feel every vessel on my head throbbing. It's unrelenting. This has only started in the last 2-3 years in the hotter months.

I don't know what might be happening with you. Could just be a more intense migraine. But it's always advisable to speak to your doctor if you feel concerned.

I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you! I know weather changes can make hot flashes worse, and those bring on migraines. I'll jeep an eye on things and see if it changes.
