Severe Headaches, Excessive Hunger. Need Help

Since yesterday i have a severe headache, it has been constant. Not even allowing me to sleep. I have also been feeling very hungry- and no matter how much i eat or what i eat this hunger remains alongside the headache.

It has only been happening since yesterday, but i cant function with this headache. I have taken ibuprofen to relieve myself from the pain but it still remains.

Neurologist 's  Response
Hi,
You have acute headache with increased appetite. Need to check your blood sugar immediately ,raised blood sugar is one occasion where a person has headache and excessive hunger, another condition is hypothalamic lesion

You should consult General physician/ Neurophysician for further plan of management.

You require CT scan brain to rule out any structural lesion of brain

Hope this will help you
