About 12 days ago I strated getting a headache, the day after I was vomitting and the headache was really bad and i went to a and e and they said they thought i had a kidney/serious urine tract infection. so i spent about a week in bed recovering with antibiotics. I have been off the antibiotics for about 3 or 4 days now and I am still getting a headache when I stand up. It comes after being up for a 1-2 hours and i have to lie down which helps it. it also is worse later on it the day
I never get headaches usually. Should I be worried?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* The intense headache, vertigo with vomiting indicate possible neurology related disturbances rather than UTI.
* I suggest to consult an expert neurophysician for possible need of MRI or other evaluation and further management guidelines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
