Does your head pain feel like you have a tight band around your head (not a throbbing headache.) If so, I might be able to help you by telling you how I fought it.

Sometimes it does feel like it gets tight like a band getting tighter and tighter and feels like it is going numb

Yes I can relate...Had VM on 3/17/19 and was in the Hospital for 3 days and released to recover...Legs weak, back still hurts, pressure in my head all the time with constant headaches, balance off at times....And when I grit my teeth or excuse me for this one, but if I push hard when doing the number two, then here comes the extreme head pains.....Strenuous activity or lifting things cause head pains as well....

Talking caused the echo and radio delay static, which increased the eye stabs and vise-like pain. When my PCP finally began paying attention, he erroneously suggested it was TMJ. This was AFTER the ENT had connected the dots between acute chronic mastoiditis and meningitis.
