Education:Bad headache when I stand up?

Bad headache when I stand up? So my head began to hurt a couple days ago (Wednesday). It hurts when I lay my head down on a pillow, and the back of my head throbs with pain when I sit up or stand. The next day (Thursday), I still had a headache and kept getting the chills during my classes at school. I took an excedrin and it helped for about an hour. Today (Friday) I woke up with an extremely sore throat, congested, a fever, and the headache. The fever and congestion are now gone, but the sore throat and headache are still here.
I%26#039;ve take 4 Dayquil pills today so far and the headache hasn%26#039;t gone away.
What%26#039;s wrong with me? ). I searched and found this on that diagnosis (see http://www.clevelandclinic.org/heartcent... )

I am not saying this is what you have, I%26#039;m not a doctor. I am only recalling what I watched because the human body is amazing and who would make a connection between heart disease and migraines? Anyway, there are many reasons for lasting headaches. The most common is stress. Something might be bothering you (subconciously) and your body is reacting to it...do not underestimate the power of the mind and its affect on the body.

Any way, hope you are okay. Take care.
