A member asked:

I have a head ache and a sharp stabbing pain in my upper stomach region?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Related or not?: There are lots of possibilities here, all of which can be addressed by a physical exam and appropriate testing. Migraines for example can affect both head and gut ("intestinal migraine"). Please however don't contribute to your stomach upset by taking excessive nsaid's aimed at alleviating head ache. Get checked ASAP to rule out more esoteric pathology.
