I'm obviously not 100% sure that I'm correct, but other descriptions
people have given are very similar and docs are suggesting that as a
possible cause.
My pain is kind of just to the side and back of the top of the head,
and not over towards the eyes which apparently is not a good thing for
those people, but a good thing for me.
Some suggest that it's a pinched nerve, some suggest it's a nerve in
the neck, some suggest a headbump of some sort as the cause.
Wanna read more about my possible head pain?

I'll give it another week to see if it was just a nerve issue, then
head to the doctor. That is of course, unless one of you gets a call
from me because I can't see anymore and need a ride to the hospital!

pain since 2001, starts at left base of skull and spreads to left temple. Neurologist treating me for migraines for years with all kinds of drugs. Just left pain doctor who says it could be occipital neuralgia and if so can be treated with a nerve block shot done in the office. Doing an MRI next week and then we will see. I'll keep you posted.
