localized intermittent headache

[cookienkikin]

I'm a 22 yr old male and for the past 6 months I've been having a very localized intermittent headache in the very same spot it started 6 months ago. It was present for 2 months, went away for 2 months, and is now back and has been present for 2 months.  It's about 2 inches above and behind my right ear. Go 2 inches from the top of your right ear and then 1 inche toward the back of your head.  Could this be a spot for an anuerysm to form?  Would an anuerysm present itself like this?  The pain will go away and then I will get sharp shooting pains in that spot, and occasionally at the front and very top of my head. Not very often though. I'm also very tired all the time, I sleep 12 hrs a night and it's till hard to wake up and then I'm tired all day long.  How would an unruptured anuerysm present itself? does this sound like my case? I had a complete physical exam done yesterday, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and reflexes.  All good

This may be  "cluster headaches" These are more common in men and present much as you describe. Be sure to stop all alcohol, smoking, and start a healty diet. A referral to a neurologist could help you solve this.  Other possibilities are to be considered. Aneurysms will not appear that soon. The MRI ruled that out.

Hello, it around the time my headache started last year like this.  Its the same thing and is very persistent, and localized.  It affects my sleep and everyday life.  Last year around June/July I had a brain MRI/MRA done and it was completely normal.  Could an aneurysm appear since then to now, in that amount of time?   Please help I'm tired of this dang thing, and my fears are always that when something is wrong with me that its really bad, don't know why.  Thanks so much
