Hi-
So for the past three months I have been suffering from a pretty extreme, constant headache. It never goes away, and only increases or slightly decreases in intensity, and is mainly around the top my head, temples, and behind my eyes. I have been to see a doctor, but nothing he prescribed me has worked. He tried Fioricet and Inderal, and I am currently on Topamax and Vicodin, neither of which does much of anything. The Vicodin takes some of the edge off, but the headache is always there.
My doctor also sent me for an EEG because there is a history of seizures in my family, but that came back normal. I am scheduled for an MRI in two weeks, but I had one about a year and half ago and it was normal.
I just really don't know what to do anymore- I'm incredibly frustrated, and exhausted all the time, and in a constant state of pain. Forgive me, I'm not normally a complainer, but it has been incredibly frustrating. Also, I'm only 18, and all I do now is go to work and come home and sleep. Is there anything that could be causing this that my doctor might be missing?
