Have A Soft Spot On My Head And It Pains. Taking Amoxicillin. Worried About The Findings?

I'm reading all of these symptoms online and they all seem like mine. So here it goes. I too have a soft spot on the top right sight of my head and have a dull pain thee continuously. I am 41 and a year ago had a tube put in my right ear to help drain it. I experience some mild vertigo and have had a CT scan on the past w/ same symptoms and it was clear. Just went to DR 2 weeks ago and he gave me 850mg amoxicillin due to my ear infections and issues I have. Sometimes my head hurts and sometimes it doesn't. Now put anxiety and stress on top of it and its miserable. I also have the worst sinuses and am on a CPAP machine?

Neurologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Based on your symptoms, I do not think you have any serious neurological problem. Sinusitis can be well treated. Since your CT scan was normal, it rules out brain tumors. However, if you are very anxious, you can get an MRI scan of the brain done.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
