Hi

I know it is hard when you are in pain all the time, but... do you keep a headache diary?

If not, you might try -- you should note in it what you eat, as well. After a while, see if there are patterns. Some people find that certain foods trigger headaches. There are "risky" foods (and drinks!) that migraineurs are warned against, but each individual has to see which things affect them. Some of the "typical' things may not affect you, while some other foods that aren't on the warning lists might.

Just an idea... to see if you can maybe prevent at least some of your headaches.

I agree with Doc though, that you do need to speak to your physician or preferably a headache specialist. If you can keep a diary with dietary notes as well as headache incidence, duration, and specific symptoms, this may also help your doctors to help you.
