I'm 50 Years Old And Have Experienced "hormonal Type Of

I'm 50 years old and have experienced "hormonal type of headaches" between 1-3 episodes on a monthly basis (pre, peri and post menstrual). However, these new symptoms: increased pressure on top and behind my cranium, in both of my eyes, tingling and numbness on top of my head, left side of my face, left arm into fingers, left trunk and left lower extremity have been constant (laying down, dimming the lights or staying in a quiet room do not make a difference), blurred vision in both eyes, nausea, a few occasions of catching myself and 1-2 occasions of trying to find the precise words to say, feeling of falling a few times. These cluster of Sxs have been ongoing for 9 consecutive days without relief but the intensity of the pressure and headache varies according to my physical activity and positions (the more I do, the more pressure in and around the brain and my eyes/laying down on my right side worsens my headache, pressure in both eyes).
