    No clue

    But stress causes headaches.  I think with everything going on.... it's easy to loose our train of thoughts.  Good topic, I can't wait to read what others have to say.

    I had headache for two weeks

    I had headache for two weeks but brain MRI showed normal brain with no Mets. My headache got better and the doctor said it could be tension headache. So I think it's best to immediately see your surgeon or oncologist to check it with them.

    not surprised

    people get headaches. Where once no thoughts existed about cancer, it becomes all consuming. Creating neuro pathways by force. Even sounds painful.
