Default Head Pressure

Hi everyone, this is my first post and I'm sorry it's probably going to be a long one.

About a month ago I was on the antibiotic Levaquin for a sinus infection. I think I was allergic to it because it made me feel just awful. But anyway I had went downstairs to my basement to do some laundry and the doorway down there is very short (prob 5 ft) well I guess where I sick anyway I wasn't paying much attention and raised up before I should have. I didn't pass out but I did see stars and all I could think was "get in the house". I had also done the same thing about 2 months prior to this and hit the same part of my head (just below the crown).

4 yrs ago I was in 2 MVAs within 6 months of each other both on which I cracked the windshield with my head( I wear my seatbelt now). I have not really felt the same since the second MVA. I have been having memory and concentration problems since.

But my question is I am not really having a headache. I would call in more of a pressure on the back of my head and Its really driving me crazy. I work in a Dr. office and she is telling me that it is my sinuses. I have not had any scans done because I am uninsured and I really dont have $1,500 lying around to pay for one. I got a headache at the time I injured myself and I have probably had 10 within the last month. Which is way more than I ever have. I went swimming this past Sunday and got one and went golfing this past Monday and got one. But has anyone heard on people complaining of pressure instead of a full blown migraine??

I'm just really tired of feeling this way. If anyone can offer any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Amber
