The last few days it's been crying spells. Had everyone convinced I suffer from Severe Depression from not being able to cope with a disease.
Well today, no depression. Instead I'm having something I've had before, which is shooting pains all inside my head, electrical in nature at times, sometimes just pain.
Started in the front of my head and now it's in the back 2 hours later.
Percocet does nothing.
On top of this, I'm having tremors in my arms and even slightly in the neck.
When it's sitting in the front of my head, this is when it feels like I'm gonna have a seizure.

I've had those shooting pains in my head many times..Also had them in my neck, my elbows, and under my arm.
It is a neurological type of pain, so I am not surprised the Percocet did not help. Do you have have anything prescribed for neurological pain or neuropathies? That would be more likely to provide some relief.
AS with most other things, this too will go away with treatment. Until it does, detox as much as possible; that should help to hasten the disappearance of this very unpleasant sensation.

Losferwrds, even more important is what this person is NOT on....i.e., antibiotics, anti-malarials, etc. I believe it's always been rife, salt/C, IVIG now. Of course, drug therapy is no cure-all as we know, but....

I have also had the shooting pains in my head. That comes and goes. Feels like someone is stabbing inside your head. A sharp shooting pain. That has gotten a lot better for me.
