question: My 17 year old daughter is having intense headaches that are increasing in frequency. She has had a steady headache for 6 days, and she is also having a stabbing pain occasionally that she describes as an axe being dropped into the middle of head. She says this stabbing pain is new - she has never felt anything like it before. She has experienced a little numbness on left side (but that was a few weeks ago and it was not related to this headache episode). She has been dizzy with this headache. We had blood tests run to see if she was anemic, but she is not. Any ideas?
