Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of having funny feeling in your head kind of pullsing on the right side of my head above the ear, it was one a week and now is avery hour, You had cardiac arest 15 months ago, they put stent in one and ballon in other, you are on metroprolol 25 mg a day, provastatin 40 mg once a day and baby asprin.
Such incidences usually occur due to arteritis of hte temporal artery and can be tested like this by digital examination to feel the pounding nature when you are in an attack.

I would advise you the following:
Tests of blood.
Blood pressure monitoring by holter.
tests of color doppler for the arteries in the respective area to get a confirmed diagnosis.
Simply clipping of the artery supplying this particular area would help you to get alright.
I find this answer helpful
