I've heard of oxygen helping get rid of these headaches, but can breathing oxygen also trigger one?
I fainted in the doctors office when they were taking my blood and they gave me an oxygen mask for a few minutes. Almost immediately when they took off the mask, I got the worst headache I've ever had in my life. It was like someone was stabbing me with a knife in my eye and temple on the right side of my head. It was so excruciating and unbearable, I thought something was seriously wrong, like a brain hemorrhage. It was really frightening. Then it went away after about 20 minutes or so.
Could it have been linked to the oxygen?
