Sharp momentary pains in right temporal lobe?!


Question:

Sharp momentary pains in right temporal lobe?

I have been getting sharp, momentary pains in my right temporal lobe. They aren't whole headaches. They are simple unbearable pains on or near my right temple. The spot is always the same and very specific.

I'm a fairly built guy and used to pain, but these short, lightening-fast pains stop me in my tracks. I can't function for the one or two seconds they occur. I had them a couple of years ago for a period of time, but haven't had them since... until now.

I've had three in the last 6 hours. Doctor couldn't help me before. Has anyone heard of this? Solution? 22 y/o male

They only last for a second and are very specific, like someone is sticking a large needle just above my right temple. Is that similar to a cluster headache?


Answers:

I literally feel your pain. I get those as well and its the worst feeling ever. I had one doc tell me it was tooth related, i had another tell me it was stress related.
Im sorry I dont have an answer for you. I do know that some local hospitals offer headache studies where they actually pay you to come in and watch your brain activity. Call around or google your area to see if this is available.
Good luck.
