Painful Head, Bad Taste In Mouth, Ice Pick Headaches. What Is Wrong?

I've been having a sharp shooting pain on the right side of my head off and on all day, more frequently in the last hour (approximately every 3-5 minutes) I also had a nasty taste in my mouth. I believe I suffer from "ice pick headaches" as I tend to get sharp shooting pains in my head a few times a day for a couple years now.
