Extreme Headaches While Swimming

I've been having a problem recently. When I swim, about 300 yds in, I get a really bad headache. This just started happening about two weeks ago. I have been swimming for about year now and have never had anything like this. The pain is unbearable to the point where it feels like a migraine. If anyone has had the same problem please let me know. Are my goggles too tight? Maybe my swimcap? Am I depriving my brain of oxygen !? Any input would be greatly appreciated. I would like to be able to swim without this pain!

    Is it possible that you are not getting enough fluids? Maybe you need to drink some more water or Gatorade or something similar. I have never gotten a headache while swimming. I however do get pretty bad stomache aches from time to time.
