An 80-year-old white woman with a history of hyperthyroidism treated with radioactive iodine ablation, gastroesophageal reflux disease complicated by Barrett esophagus, osteoarthritis, breast cancer status post-bilateral mastectomy, and diverticulosis presented with severe left-sided headache and diplopia. Three weeks prior to presentation, she developed a sharp pain located over the left temporal, parietal, and occipital regions. It was associated with exquisite scalp tenderness. Over the next few days, the pain progressed, involving the left side of the face, including the periorbital region. There was no radiation of the pain, and she had little relief with over-the-counter acetaminophen. She also experienced earache, sore throat, and left jaw pain with mastication.
