Default Headache after Tarlov cyst removal?

Hellow
My daughter had a 9 cm Tarlov cyst removed in 2009 but is stille experiencing severe headache. The neurosurgeon says everything looks okay after the surgery, but she suffers from headache all the time. The headache is getting worse after physical activities (also when she's only walking) and she finds relief when she's horisontal.
The doctors will not acknowledge her symptoms. Is it normal to feel such a headache?. She is also having back pain in the lumbal area
The doctors says shes having chronic pain, but the cyst removal isn't the cause. She is living a disabled life. We are frustrated. We can't help her.
We have send her MRscans to dr. Warnke in German to have a second opinion, but we would like to hear from you, if her symptoms are normal?
Lot's of greetings.
