Cheetah - thanks for the response. Headache gone now and hoping this will be it. Oddly enough I tried to call my GP the other day but the phone lines were down so sent an email....appointment never confirmed due their comms issues. Will see how things go but I do, like you, think an ENT person could be the solution.

Cheers

Your GP should be able to refer you to both a Neurologist and ENT consultant. You will probably need an MRI scan and one scan will satisfy both consultants. I would see the Neuro first.

Good luck.

Binder,

Many thanks.

Is what I have common? Pain kinda creeps down from temple onto cheekbone, behind the eye - not excruciating but annoying - odd stabbing pain then throbbing then it goes. Feel absolutely fine.

Hopefully see the GP this week.

Cheers

I'm not a medic' and so can't comment. But If I was in your shoes I would get referred to a Neurologist as soon as......hopefully all will be well and your mind will be put at ease.

Don't delay & good luck again!
