Severe Headache, Dizziness, Pupils Bigger In Size. Taken Aspirin. Anything To Worry?
I woke up this morning with a really bad headache. I took aspirin after breakfast and it seemed to help a little.
We went to some friends house and hung out at the pool all day. it was very relaxing. Throughout the day my eyes were bothering me. I kept taking off my glasses,(I wear progressive bifocal glasses) and putting them back on throughout the day because I was feeling dizzy.
After dinner I had to take more aspirin because my headache reappeared with a vengeance. When I was getting ready for bed, I noticed that both of my pupils were big, even though I was looking into a lighted magnifying mirror. My left pupil is larger than the right one and I am feeling a little barfy.
Is this something that I should be worried about?

The kind of headache you are referring to, in my opinion, seems something due to lesion of brain.
Because unequal pupil, unilateral headache, headache in morning, not responding to aspirin are the features that could be suggestive of some space occupying lesion of brain
You should consult a neurologist without ant delay and he might order CT Scan of brain
Wish you a speedy recovery
