***HELP!!! Ice pick headaches, strange head shaking etc

hey,

There are alot of smart people on GLP so I would like any advice or knowledge people can give me on my following.

For a about 4/5 i have been having sharp pains in the sides of my head which my GP diagnosed as probably trigeminal neuralgia. But of course its very hard to pin down and diagnose trigeminal neuralgia correctly.


I have had numerous stages in the last years with different levels of repeat attacks from high (several times a day in little 10 sec bursts) to short (one every week or month).

Over the last year or two i have had some random different types of pains in different areas where TN usually doest occur for example the back of the head on either side and the crown.
yesterday i had the weirdest experience where it felt like my whole brain shook side to side quickly and felt like a pulsating effect and it made me feel like i was about to collapse and my vision went strange with a pulsating type effect also.

I know i should get advice from a doctor but i live in a new country and it takes a while to sort it out.


so please if anyone has any info or experience of such a case please talk.


thanks
