I have these really bad headaches...?

They started about i dont know 4 or 5 months ago, they are getting increasingly worse and i always have them when i wake up in the morning... my mom had an avm 10 years ago if it could be anything related...

How much sleep do you get? If you are not getting atleast 8 hr each time you sleep or are getting more than 10-11hrs your body is not getting enough time to re-energize for the following day.

It also may be tension or migraine headaches. I suffer from them my self and understand how bad they can get. Try drinking plenty of water at least 64oz a day is recomended by most doctors and eliminating things that can trigger a headache (Smoke, certain foods, stress, bright lights, etc.).

Try to write down each time you get a headache, how long it last and what the last thing you did before you got it was. If you only get them when you sleep it may be how you are sleeping, if your neck is not supported properly it can lead to tension which can create a painful head ache and if that is the case that may explain why they are getting worse, night after night of bad sleep can effect your body in a very negative way.

Hope some of this helps, if nothing else try to go to a doctor or a massage therapist.

I'm in a similar situation and it turned out i had high blood pressure cause by stress...go to the doctor and get checked out.

I would cut out caffeine, stimulant drugs, noise and news, anything that can make your body stress out. Cancel each thing out at a different time that way you can pin point which factor is hurting you. Then don't do that specific factor or limit it's use, especially before you lay down for the night.

Since the headaches have started recently and are getting worse, they could really be something serious. I have migraines, but have had them many years. Any 'sudden' health issues are something to be concerned with. It could be high blood pressure or something more. Many things are heritary, please get cked out by your dr. and let him know of your mom's problems too. Good health!

keep a headache diary noting triggers and treatments with the results. make an appointment with your doctor and take the diary.
