For the last five weeks I have been experiencing pressure in my head. Starts slowly in the morning and increases throughout day. Includes tinitus (ringing in my right ear.) The pressure will persist for a few days and then go away. Came on very strong again the day after Christmas and has been with me ever since. New addition, is positional vertigo. The pressure started at top of my head and now it seems to be like a tight hair band around my head. Anyone else have similar headaches?

I have an appointment with my Onc on Friday (called 2 weeks ago, first time was 1/5)
