Yesterday I had about a dozen or so episodes of acute, very short headaches. Pain was severe, but only lasted about a second, and seemed to emanate from the back to front of the right side of my head on the surface. This is unusual for me since I never seem to get headaches, unless I am ill with the flu. Today, I am still having similar episodes, however, the pain is much less severe. I can think of no other recent issues, health or otherwise.
Episodes can occur while lying down, at the computer, eating or watching TV. I am a 74 year old male in good health. The only related issue I can think of, is that I have occasional episodes of optical migraines, which occur about four times a year. Those episodes never include any pain, but only weird pixilation in the vision of both eyes, and lasts about 15-20 minutes. BP and pulse checked normal for me. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
