Appears that you are quite worried and focused on etiology of your headaches, and glad a neurologist will become involved. The most likely causes may be tension cephalgia, migraine, dehydration. Your described experiences are not consistent with structural intracranial pathology.

I agree with Dr.M. However I recommend getting a sooner appointment with another neurologist I'm insistent that patients with persistent worrisome & uncomfortable symptoms like yours should be fit in within a few days of calling for an evaluation and not be put off for weeks.
