Anxious about 4 day long headache

Ash,
 
Take the time to do some relaxation techniques and do think of all the positives for your upcoming vacation.
 
You dong the right things, so keep up with the doctor and try to release some of your stress with relaxation techniques and breathing techniques.

Went to the doctor today because I've had this headache that won't go away. It's been 4 days now and it's on the left side of my head kind of above/near the left eye area. It hurts more when I move my head suddenly or my eyes. 

The doctor thinks it's probably sinus related and gave me antibiotics but said if it doesn't go away in a week or so we can do some tests. I've got it into my head that I have an unruptured aneurysm (which is pretty crazy because I don't have any of the risk factors or any other symptoms) but I can't seem to shake that thought. 

I've been under a lot of stress lately with job interviews but I'm about to go on a week long cruise (this Sunday) and just want to enjoy myself but I'm finding it hard to relax with this headache and the nagging thoughts about aneurysms. I'm worried I'll still have it when the cruise leaves and I'll be anxious about it the whole time!
