I had horrible headaches for 6months. Completely dehabilitating and would have them as soon as I woke up. Neuro prescribed me pain meds which was the only way I got through those days, but really was just a bandaid and not good to take those long term(you'd think a neuro would know that).

My Primary Care Dr. started me on 25mg amitryptaline and I noted a HUGE improvement in my headache symptoms after a week. After I was prescribed blue tinted glasses for my convergent insufficiency(see a neuro-opthamologist!), most of my headaches resolved.

Now I am dealing with the occasional brain fog and sensitivity to noisy/loud environments and trying to exercise more.
