I'm new, too, to this site & have had 2 concussions past 2 years. Haven't been able to tolerate any meds(indocin, topamax, pamolar etc). Found 5-HTP is allowing me to sleep better & decreasing headache intensity. I'm taking 200mg 2x/day & buy it at Costco. My concussion specialist says you need 400-600mg to help headaches & is slowly increasing dose. When I went off 5-HTP for a month as workers comp refuses to pay for it, the headaches & sleep issues increased. Hope this helps you!
