YES!!!!!!!
I have suffered from the EXACT same symptoms, in umm all cases mentioned. Holding your breath under water also does it to me. They are exertion headaches and a type of migrane. Like you, they lasted 2-3 days and came on like a gunshot in the head. A very rythmic, pounding headache. I went to my regular physician who gave me migrane meds which turned me into a zombie. Ride??????? I couldn't find my way home in a car. I did a combination of things. I went to a neurological chiropractor who did some really funky things which may have worked, however I think even more importantly I was diagnosed with a Magnesium shortage. I would try taking Magnesium and see what happens. Do not take Mg combined with calcium. I take Magnesium glycinate by the manufacturer Pure. It is pharmaceutical grade and far superior to the stuff you might pick up at Walmart.....
This was one of the most painful things I have ever gone through.

PS I was 41 at the time, and also on birth control pills. I was immediately taken off those as well. That may have had an effect too.
