I don't want to scare you,but if you have had this headache for so many days you MUST get to see someone.I know 3 people who put up with a "headache" and it was haemorrage.Two are fine but sadly one didn't survive ,she was 48.It is better to be seen and it turn out to be nothing than leave it!!
Hope you get it sorted and feel better soon

If you cannot get an appointment, can you get to your nearest A&E.

Try not to wait any longer to get help.

If they still can't give you an appointment for today, then ask if a Doctor or Nurse Practitioner can ring you. Four days is a long time for a headache and you definitely need medical advice promptly.

Let us know how you get on xx

if they still refuse to give you an appointment today, ask what your options are to see a doctor as you feel it is urgent
