What is this massive headache? Is it a migraine?

It's been going on 24 hours now. I feel like I want to throw up. I seriously feel like the right side of my face is just off. It's not sinus. I know sinus headaches. (Plus, when I bend over, it doesn't really get worse.) It feels like my right eye is about to pop out. And the right side of my forehead is killing me.

Now that the sun is out, I want to wear sunglasses inside. I can't even function. Is this a migraine? I've never had one. TIA!!!! Chat Icon

It could be. I get them a few times a year and no medicine helps. Usually sleep helps.

Sorry you are hurting.

Sounds like one esp. with the severe eye pain and nausea. Keep taking advils etc and rest. Maybe see your doc about it to see if you can get more effective migraine meds. I know how much they suck, feel better!

definitely sounds like a migraine. Try to hole up in a dark room with an eye mask one and take some excedrin migraine or a cup of coffee. Feel better Chat Icon

I'm laughing because everyone told me to get rest and stay in a darm room. Kind of hard with a 2 year old. Doctor did confirm it was a migraine. OOF! That was my first one ever. I seriously feel for people that get them often. Chat Icon

How do you feel today?

Yeah, they are brutal.

I had one two weeks ago Sunday. Thought my head would fall off. Sleep was the only thing that helped me.

I felt much better today. I was feeling better by last night. I nver want to go through that again. Kudos to those that ever endure that on a regular basis!
