But this enlarged feeling in my head and bad headache is worse than usual . So I know it's not the flu . I would like some answers .
Brief Answer:
Get a CT scan of the brain.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam.
I can understand your concerns.
Your headache seems to be of sudden onset with varied features.
It is important to rule out organic brain pathology or any vascular etiology.
A Migraine is quite unlikely to present with these features at your age.
Hence for better assessment, I advise you to get a CT scan or MRI scan of the brain.
CFS/FM rarely present with such headaches.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
