What Causes Sharp Shooting Pains On Right Side Of Head?
I am having sharp shooting pains on the right side of my head. They started yesterday. I have been taking fioricet for years but due to insurance can not get refill until two days. I have SLE, Diabetic, hypothrodism, pernicious anemia and I am a breast cancer survival since 2013. I am completing a heart stress test in a week. Do you think the sharp pain is due to lack of my pain meds or one of my other illnesses?

It can be due to SLE but its connection with not using pain medicines cannot be established . I think you should see a doctor for the same.
