Hi

For months, I would get these brief, low-intensity headaches on the left side of my head. They came and went throughout the day and seldom lasted more than a few seconds. None were very severe...just enough to give me a good scare and make me wonder what was going on. They also were not all that painful.

Recently, I have begun to have right-sided headaches that come and go throughout the day. These new headaches are the same in duration and intensity as the left-sided headaches I USED to have.

My "history"...

* Allergic Rhinitis
* Acute Sinusitis
* Generalized Anxiety Disorder
* Occassional panic attacks
* Depression
* Really BAD Hypochondria
* I drink a few beers now and then
* I smoke (just started a few months ago)
* I take Lorazepam and Atarax

For a long time I was obscessed with rabies because we have bats in our area and one flew over my head one day, caught a bug in it's wings and then flew off into the feild. I obcesed over this for months...every little tingle, twitch, ache, etc...I swore it was rabies!.

Now recently, because of the headaches I have become obscessed with Menengitis (which rabies actually can cause!!) so I am double freaking out right now - even though I had the little headaches before the bat flew over my head. Also, I had a vertigo spell and suffered from slight dizziness and lightheadness for about a week (also can be a symptom of menengitis but also a LOT of other conditions) and when I talked to my mom, she said that her and my brother both suffer from this as well and that it is debilitating. Also, I had vertigo years ago and have experienced a lot of head shocks, dizziness and all kinds of other crazy symptoms for years so I just don't know what to think.

I've had more tests over the years than I can even begin to think of and of course, everything is always "normal" so why do I always feel like complete crap and have all these weird symptoms?.

HELP PLEASE!!
