Ok, but dont screw around with a bad headache. I learned the hard way that if you have a headache that's the worst pain you've ever experienced, that you need to go to the doctor immediately. (when I had optic neuritis for the very first time. Never had pain worse than that before or since.)

I just remember my head hurting bad, and I didnt realize what was going on, and I thought I was going to die or something, but I was afraid to go wake up my dad to take me to the hospital (it hurt THAT bad) because I didnt want to wake him up and have him be angry at me for waking him up.

Glad you got your BP meds Doydie. I used to get bad headaches when my pressure would spike up. That's a warning sign of stroke conditions. Now I never miss a day of my BP meds for that reason. I hope you continue to feel better each day.

Feel better, doydie. I am sending healing thoughts your way.

Called the dental doc this morning. I say dental doc because they have branched out to so many different people that I'm not sure who he is! But they took an x ray........ouch and then he came in and poled around to relieve some of the pressure. He gave me an antibiotic which will continue to relieve the pressure and in about a week extract the tooth. At least I hope it's in a week. Out medical expense account expires at the en of the month and out new insurance through where my husband works isn't picking it up. So I'm trying to get as much done this month as I can! Bottom line, I feel better. I still feel like I stink and my mouth still tastes kind of bad but I do feel better. Thanks you all. Oh, my B/P was much better this morning. But I have spent $263 this week only on meds. But I will get it all back! Our entire expense account will pay for most of our Disney World trip next fall!

Gotta love those healthcare expenses, eh? I'm glad you're feeling better.

I am among the living!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a note on the worst headache of your life. Nothing to play with! Had a very good friend drop dead at 43 from a brain aneurism, and just a couple of weeks ago one of my buddies girlfriends collapsed in his arms from the same after complaining of the " worst headache of her life ", she is still in the Cleveland Clinic after surgery for the same.
