headache/ numbness in the right side of my face?

about a week ago I started to have really bad headaches went to er and was told it was bad migranes a few days later I was laying in bed and this pain from my head sort of like a pinching pain had went from my head down to my body my right side of my face went numb neck everything. then I felt like the blood was draining away, heart rate increased and some how made my way to the bathroom mirror and my eyes were very dilated felt dizzy and made my way to the frezzer went to er and said it was neck spams. They gave me a muscle relaxer, last night it did it again but wasnt as bad as the first seen my doctor 2 days ago and he said if it persist go see a neurologist. I dont know whats going on does anyone have the same or close to the same as I do I can't find anything on this and when i was in the er they did ct scans and all was good. last night when it happened it kinda gave me a twitch but it slowly made its way down my body to my legs. Only happens on the right side can someone give me some insight on this this is really scaring me and I dont know whats causing it or why this is happening. :(

Update:

I had just found this and am reading it http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH000175... take a look and when it does happen its not so much as a headache but a pain in my head that I can not describe it is the second time it happened and what I seen it only happens when im laying in bed right before I go to sleep I read alot online and seems like no one can figure this out

    WOW! the exact same thing happens to me sometimes. only i also lose partial vision due to these weird stroby floaters. I also go numb only on my right side, and it's never gone to my legs, but to my arm and hand. NO DOCTOR has ever been able to tell me what is wrong. The closest I've found on it is a migraine that is attached to the optical nerve. I'm still at a loss and it's very frightening when it does happen. if you ever find out wth it is, please let me know!!!

    That's sounds acute on chronic. U have been on xanax for 17 years?? ur doctor should be clear of the diagnosis by now. It's either migraine, something to do with sinus or brain(nerve). Get a second opinion if it's really matters to u, from the same doctor and another. Give him a clear details of other medical history and any associated symptoms. all this could help determine the diagnosis. Don't worry, u'll get well.
