is it possible to determine what's wrong with someone based upon where their headache is localized like nail through the head, behind the eyes, behind the head, extending to the neck...

Not sure. I'm lucky in that I rarely get headaches, but I am curious.

That sounds like a stress-induced migraine.

Congratulations -- life's gonna suck for you for about 3 days!

Try taking excedrin products. It leaves me extremely jittery, but at least the migraine doesn't hurt.

I've had migraines since early childhood. Your description is exactly what mine feel like, though I commonly describe it as an ice pick.

BTW, your avatar is extremely cute! What a beautiful baby.

I'm not 100% sure, but I saw on a medical program that locations of headaches can determine the location of a brain tumor (that is, if a person has one). I guess thats a bit extreme though. Yeah...i'm not all that sure.
