Default 4 Day Headache... Again

I have had pretty much a non stop headache for the last 4 days, which started with a killer migraine on Friday night. I wake up with it and it escalates throughout the day to migraine status. Unfortunately migraine medicine is not helping. I already take Topamax 100 mg 2 x day to prevent these, and do have the occasional breakthru migraine, but this is unusual. It has happened before but not for along time. Last time it happened i ended up at the neuros office for a shot and a mri.. Don't really want to do that since I just moved 4 hours away and really cant afford an mri right now (lost my job a couple of weeks ago).
Any ideas what might be going on? Stress was my first guess, but if that were the case I would think the migraine meds and muscle relaxers I usually take would have worked...
