No I am sorry fabdou....

Treatment of persistent headache is a specialty and should be diagnosed carefully to rule out pressure changes in the CNS fluid of the head.

People with chronic pain in general are showing up low in Vit D tests. So you could have that done, as well as B12 and B6 at the same time. Vit D should be 50-80ng and B12 should be 400 or above. (doctors still use antiquated ranges and tell patients they are "normal", when in fact they are really LOW-- so keep this in mind and get your results).

Some things in the past that have been suggested are feverfew extract and riboflavin Vit B2. It wouldn't hurt to try these if you haven't already. Magnesium treatment does help some patients with migraine. I have a magnesium thread here:

I'd consider a food intolerance too. Gluten and dairy are the biggest factors in neurological illnesses.
