For the past few months Ive been getting more headaches than normal but for the past 5 days Ive had a headache that makes me worry. I have been going through more stress this last few months but this last weeks ache is killing me. Sat I did drink a lot(which is stupid cause I have a slightly high bilirubin level), so I know why my head hurt Sunday.
I just don't what this could mean. Ive taken ibprofen but I don't want to over do it so I haven't taken that much. I know I should go to the doctor if it continues but I just want to know what I should be looking out for.

A headache that does not go away needs to be investigated at the docs office. The thing you should be looking out for is what you already have..................more headaches than normal and one that has lasted for 5 days. See the doc and find out what is going on. Also taking pain medication too often or routinely can cause rebound headaches.

It can be anything from stress to sinuses. If you are concerned, you need to see your doctor. You may even want to go to several doctors and get different opinions. It could be easily treated, so there is no reason to have to suffer through them.
When I was in high school, my neighbor had a horrible headache and went home from school.Turns out it was an aneurysm and the kid died.
You know your body, so if it feels like something is wrong, there is a good chance that there is. I'm not saying to you are going to die, but it's a good idea to get checked out.

How severe are you headaches? Because if they get worse overtime, then you might be having migraines. If your head feels like it's throbbing or has stabbing pain, that's another sign you could be having migraine headaches. I just went to the neurologist a few days ago about my migraines because I get one everyday and they are bad! I am on many and various prescription pills now. In my opinion, you can never over-do it with Ibuprofen. That pill never worked for me personally, too weak.

You really should go to the doctor...I had a head ache that started two weeks ago and I woke up with it in the morning and went to bed with it at night...turned out I had a abcess on my tooth...so anything can cause it but when it lasts that long you should have it checked out right away...don't want to scare you but it could be serious..also, could be nothing but stress...please go...good luck!

Yes, the biting surfaces of your back teeth are called the occlusal surfaces (meaning "table"). Perhaps he was alo tallking about an occusal X-ray, wherein the X-ray beam is directed down from the top of your head. This can sometimes be used to find the position of missing teeth.

The only answer to that is a Dr. visit and testing. It is NOT norm to have a high bilirubin level. That means something's going on with your liver. I believe you answered your own question with the clues in your question!
