I have been getting headaches in the morning for the past few weeks. Over the past few days I have been getting increased headaches that are lasting throughout the day, worse in the morning and at night. I have also noticed that for the past month or so I have been having issues of stumbling to one side (my right side) while walking, and some mild speech problems (pronunciation issues and slurring not present before a month or two ago) Any idea of what the problem might be or what kind of tests I should have done to determine an illness?

ER doctor thought I was having migraines so he gave me vicodan and prednisone. Neither of which seemed to help

Hello

This could be as simple as dehydration, or as severe as a brain tumor, with other things in between. It could be high blood pressure as well.

Your best bet is having diagnostic tests done at the doctor.

In the mean time try some excedrin (caffeine), and increase your fluid intake and see if that helps.
