Can Smoking Methamphetamine Continuously Cause Severe Headache?

I've been getting headaches everyday for about 2 weeks now. I smoke meth regularly and am assuming it has something to do with the pain. It's unbearable, I get it on the right side of my head and it feels as if there is a hole on that side. I have metal in one of my teeth so I can't get a scan.. what do you think is the problem and what can I do ?

Hi!
Welcome to HCM!

The problems mentioned in your question are associated with the use of methamphetamine. Methamphetamine is known to cause loss of sleep, impaired decisions making, anxiety & tremors , headache, confusion , restlessness, & last but not the least HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

First and fore most stop taking meth as it has no beneficial effects.
Second kindly check your blood pressure, if high then you have to record it again to see whether it is due to meth or not.

Meth is a drug of abuse which has no proven beneficial effects in human beings.
So take care of your health.
Regards!
