Hello!
I have had on and off, a frontal type headache, affecting the front part of my head, and somewhere behind my eyes since sat or sunday. It's bothering me since it is still here days later, after having sleep, doing various activities, and it seems alittle tingy. The other thing I've noticed is an odd taste in my mouth?
The main differences I have made to my lifestyle recently, are;
'A' I went to a different supermarket than normal, therefore bought slightly different types of food (shouldn't really be that, I don't think).
'B' I have been on the internet more often than usual.
'C' I was taking Floxetine 20mg daily for around 2 months, then to discontinue usuage I changed to 10mg daily for 1 month, then 10mg every other day for 1 month (as prescribed by the doctor).
Stopped completely about the 14th October. Could it be withdrawal? It's bothering me that I still have this headache, though if I go back to the GP what should he check for, could this be high blood pressure or something else.
I've looked online and headaches could be a withdrawal symptom, though when stopping as planned...? and is 'THIS' type of headache consistant with stopping this type of medication, please?
Thank you in advance if you have read this, and would like to help suggest what I could consider checking for if I went to the GP, as I know what I am experiencing isn't due to depression, since I am not depressed.

Ok! so I am going to reply to my own post with an update! It may be that the headaches were unrelated to any medication! ...since speaking with a friend I found that she too had been suffering from a very similar type of headache, that could be related to a 'bug' or virus rather than medication of any sort.
I guess it is very difficult to work out the causes of headaches as the range is so great, nevertheless! I do want to specify in order to not hinder the subject of the medication, that the cause of the headaches was and is unknown! could/could not be medication related, though I am better now, and do not have a headache :-)
Best Wishes to all!
Stay Well
