unusual pain on rt side of head
by Hanna734, Oct 28, 2009 05:23PM
About two hours ago I started with an intermittent pain in the right side of my head, Between my ear and temple. THe best way I can describe it is it felt as though two or three veins/arteries? were trying to pump blood and might have encountered some difficulty? I have never had this pain before. I have had migraines. I am 65 y.o.a. and really don't complain. I have never had major surgery. I take Altace for high blood pressure. Five weeks ago I wquit smoking. I feel well otherwise, but the pain tonight seems strange. I took my own blood pressure and it was 134/88 and my pulse was 96. High pulse for me, but BP was within good limits.
Any ideas. I just took two tylenol. No vision impairment is noted, no dizziness...just that weird pain/ache in that specific area of my head about as big as a small index card.
Thank You...Hanna 705
