Would/Will and May/Might

Hi

Kindly help to check whether this sentence is correct or not.

Your headache would not go away for just sleeping days and nights. Please see a doctor and get some medicine and you would be surprised that you might be recovering sooner than you would expect.

Thank you.

Let me try my first shot. Welcome comments I think it should be " Your headache will not go away for just sleeping days and nights. Please see a doctor and get some medicine and you will be surprised that you may be recovering sooner than you will expect.

  • Reasons - would is past.
  • I think this sentence is present, therefore change would to will.
