Brief Answer:
Try Clonidine.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

I certainly have read your health issues. I feel that your headache and the reaction that you describe so vividly, that when you bend over, the ache intensifies to the point towards which you cannot sleep. The fact is that you really might be having a problem of your sinuses. These can cause heaviness of your head and the exact reactions that you are mentioning. I will suggest that you try clonidine tablets as they will control your blood pressure well, and will lower anxiety and stress levels. These are the prerequisites for good sleep. I propose that you take Ibuprofen to palliate and remove your headaches, for a short period. Please visit a doctor, preferably an ENT surgeon and mention about your issues. I strongly feel that given the easy availability, cheapness and effectiveness at multiple levels of clonidine, you stand a very good chance of eliminating all your issues with it.

Regards,
Dr. Neel Kudchadkar
