I ve severe headaches 24/7 for the last 3 months. My eyesight is light sensitive and my eyes hurt. Also I am not steady on my feet and if I sit for awhile, i.e. my grandson s football I have trouble standing up, stagger and have to hold on to railing. I am a 69 year old female.

You need to undergo a neurological examination to rule out any cerebellar involvement to account for your imbalance and staggering gait. Any primary level doctor can do this.
