Have you tried anything other than medications? Dark rooms, laying down, no tv/no computer? Any new foods? You didn't just quit coffee or something did you?
You've been to the doc, how was your blood pressure? This could be a serious problem, other than the obvious way it interferes with your life right now.
Taking OTC medications often cause rebound headaches like you are describing, but you need another medical professional. I would vote for chiropractor if your blood pressure wasn't sky high at the docs, and even that could just be from the pain!

If you are not having any other symptoms such as numbness, tingling to extremities, blurred/changed vision, slurred speech try a chiropractor first. Get adjusted and see if that helps. They average about $55 a visit. If that yields no results than get a CAT scan because a headache for that long without any form of relief needs to be further evaluated. Have you told your doctor that is continuing and getting worse?

I had that a while ago and for months, it was unbearable but they have gone now, im not sure why but i know my neck had something to do with it, and my nervous system and id get like allergy symptoms even though im not allergic to anything, was very weird, i wish i could help you but i just want to respond to gve you hope that they may settle down and go away, its hard to give advice here without knowing all the details, how they started etc but i would investigate all avenues yourself, check your diet, allegies, sensitivities and just try to stay calm as stressing will just aggrevate and keep them going, which i know is hard, especialy when your sleep deprivied as well!!!!!

Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck. Headaches can be
caused by minor problems like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more
serious reasons like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can have harmful side
effects, so it is better to modify your lifestyle. More information

that sounds horrible, i once had a headache for 1.5 days and i freaked out. =( i hope you feel better. you might want to search cronic headaches or somthing. browse :(. i found this site, one of the first ones
Chronic headaches
"When the headaches are prolonged or very frequent, they are referred to as chronic. About 3% of people suffer from this type of headache - some have a headache nearly every day and this can go on for years. Individuals who suffer from this kind of persistent headache often fear that there may be a serious underlying cause such as brain tumor, but it is extremely unlikely that this is the case."
Hope it helps some. :( thats horrible. ill be praying for you.

I have had it, and it really is extremely uncomplicated. Few go by potential of existence without experiencing eye twitching or spasm. frequently restricted to the decrease lid of one eye, yet now and again 2. clinical time period is myokymia, brought about by potential of Tiredness, Eye stress, Caffeine, and allergies. Can very last from 2 days to three weeks. Mine change into certainly brought about from allergies, yet a lack of sleep does it too. the most perfect element is lights fixtures out and relax the interest, do away with extreme interpreting, and examine out some sturdy R & R. it really is annoying and rubbing the interest will typically make it worse.

Do u have tight shoulder muscles? This can often be a cause to headaches. Tried the masks that you can sleep with over your eyes? Try sleeping with less blankets and pillows if possible as they can cause some headaches as well
Hope this helps

Try a different doctor. By now you should've had tests such as a CT/Scan or MRI. You have a bad doctor if they have not run tests. Try a chiropractor. Go see an ENT (ear/nose/throat). If you have insurance coverage, go through the emergency room (go during the weekday when it's not so busy).

Seriously, go see some more competent doctors! Having a constant headache always indicates something seriously being wrong. Although it is impossible to tell what is causing your headache since it could be any number of things; it is always an indication that something serious is going on.
