I am up to week 6 and it first started in wk 4. I try to have a banana and a drink of water before I run. On Tuesday night the headache was dibilitating and lasted from 6pm until I went to bed @ 11pm

We can't give medical answers here. I would suggest that you see your doctor.

It may be something that will go with time but it sounds a bit nasty. I agree with lycranotlikely that it would be best to see your doc and get it checked out. Hope you get it sorted and get back to enjoying your running.
