Has Anyone Experienced A Hot Searing Electric Shock Type Heache?

Tucson, AZ

It woke me up from sleeping! I got four spots along the base of my skull that burned so bad and got the feeling like I was being shocked. Anyone else?

I’ve gotten a headache usually in 1-2 spots that is sudden, severe, and temporary. It feels like I got hit with a bolt of lightning. Is that sort of similar to what you’ve experienced?

@A MyFibroTeam Member I do too! This time was different than usual but my chiropractor said it was along the fibro points so it could be from that or could be from my neck

My head burns on and off, it kind of feels like a burning/tingling sensation all over different parts of my head.

It was Along the base of my skull. I get burning all the time on my scalp but this time it was a little worse. It was gone after a minute. I did read up on occipital neuralgia. Its caused by irritation and inflammation to the neveres in your neck and it causes pain on the back of the skull. Its linked to fibro and the pain described it Severe, shocking, throbbing, stabbing, or searing. I've been doing too much this week and my neck has been really bothering me so my husband tried massaging it a few times so maybe that's it? I'm calling my dr tomorrow just to run it by him.
