Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing recurrent headaches and heaviness in my head for approximately one month. Today, the headache became extremely severe (08/10), especially after prolonged exposure to sunlight and heat.
My symptoms:
- Headaches affecting sometimes temple head or back of the head.
- Severe headache today. Currently, I have heaviness at the back of my head without significant pain.
- The heaviness increases when I lie down, even with a pillow, and reduces somewhat when I sit or stand.
- I did not sleep properly last night.
- My BP today was 130/80 mmHg, and my pulse was 70 bpm.
Medical history:
- History of hypertension.
- Taking Met XL 25 mg for several years.
I started practising spoken English recently, and I experience neck tightness followed by tightness at the back of my head and throughout my head, only when speaking English with people over the phone for about 20 minutes.
I feel pressure to speak correctly and find words quickly during conversations.
When I avoid English conversations, I don't experience this problem, but I need to practise speaking English regularly to improve my fluency.
I am concerned about relying on painkillers or avoiding English practice instead of addressing the underlying cause.
I have a history of high blood pressure currently 130/90 and was previously prescribed telmisartan 40 mg.
Please help identify the cause and advise me on safe treatment and how I can continue learning English without triggering these symptoms.

In which he used to be normal after 2 to 3 days then he stops. But this time means 3rd time he got seizures now we took him to hospital they asked to start long time medications & given levepsy 500mg 1 in morning & 2 in night within a week he got skin allergy & rashes so again we approached the doctor he has changed the tablet to zeptol 200mg morning 1 & evening 1 but still again same problem occurred after giving dexona injection + allergy tablet. Again we took him yesterday doctor again changed the tablet to gardinol 60mg only once in the night. But still there no improvement after same injection & tablets. Any suggestions what to do next.
