Starting almost a week ago now I have had this terrible headache. It is mostly in the front of my head and my eyes hurt as well. It comes and goes, but relief never comes for more than a few hours, even with medication. Additionally, I have severe pain in my neck and a couple of times I have bent over and when I come back up I have a small floating object in my vision that lasts for a good while. Also, it seems to feel better when I am up and moving around and comes back strong when I sit back down, which makes me wonder if it is something to do with the spine? It's kind of scaring me and it'll be a while before I can get to the doctor, so can anyone help? Thanks.

You need to see a physician, this could be a condition called cluster headaches, which are very intense, usually located around the eyes, have a tendency to come and go, and are normally characterised by the patients moving around due to the pain. In other headache syndromes the patients typically do not want to move, as movement increases the pain.
Get seen soon, these are treatable.

This could be indicative of something very serious.
You should just make time to go to the doctor. If he can't see you, find another.
