Thankyou for your concern. When the headaches hit, he always has pain in his right eye and right behind that in the side of his head. He goes straight to bed where he describes feeling very weak. Usually, he can't communicate except for saying over and over "Oh God, Oh God, Oh God" but gives me hand signals as to how severe it is. He holds up 1-5 fingers, 5 being the worst. It usually progresses from 1 to 5 and then stops suddenly after reaching 5 and staying there for 45 minutes or so.
I think I'll take the advice from all of you to find a second opinion.
Thank you so much.
