How Can Stress And Pain Behind The Eyes Be Treated?

I am a 28 year old male pastor...I have been under a lot of stress in the past few months. I have a history of stomach irritation. My dad has had bleeding ulcers. I am in good shape as far activity and not being overweight and typically have a lower heart rate - the last time I checked it was regular rhythm at 43bpm. Last week I had a headache, some nausea and vomiting without fever. I take medicine daily for ulcers (nexium) - I had an EGD in the past year that only showed gastritis. I also take allergy medicine and multiviatmins daily. I also had some bleeding with stools for about 3 days. It was a small amount of bright red blood. It has stopped at this point. As I stated, I currently have the headache and it is behind the eyes and in the temple area - lots of pressure. I am also forgetting things. It took me 5 mins of so to remember the name of one of the people in my church that I have known for years. I also have a feeling of pressure in my nose that has gotten worse.
