    I went to hospital with back of headaches.  I suffer from igraine a lot, but these were different.  I was told they were tension headaches caused by stress. 

    If you think it may be a tumour or brain cancer then you need to talk to a doctor to put your mind at rest.

    My anxiety has triggered my cluster headaches which ive had for 2 weeks, the secondary symptoms of anxiety are just as difficult as the actual symptoms. 

    Cluster Headaches are horrendous and incredibly painful when they trigger and I get around 6 attacks a day mainly evening and night but Ive got some meds which dhould start to prevent them and injections to abort a full on cluster but xxn only use two a day.

      Please see a doctor if you are worried your headaches are more serious than anxiety or depression.  You will worry and worry until your mind is put at rest.  This will make your headaches even worse.
