Do you have any eye sight problems or any symptoms of sinusitis? You need to rule that out as that could be causing your symptoms or aggravating them. What you can do is try to sleep properly. Do not have coffee or tea 3-4 hrs before sleeping time. Take an antianxiety medication just before you sleep, and listen to some soft music, read some books and a warm shower before you sleep. Some OTC painkillers might help also especially indomethacin. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Get your blood pressure checked to see if it is in the normal range. If the pain still persist you should probably consult a neurologist. Goodluck.
