my son was diagnosed with new daily persistent headache after extensive workup to rule out other causes. daily headaches have lasted 6 months with no let up. He has tried in patient hospitalization in Chicago with no help. Can you recommend a doctor in the Los Angeles CA area who might be of help. If not, can you provide me with any resources to try to locate a doctor who may be of help. We really don't know where to turn.

Hello,
Daily persistent headache usually diagnosed as a Chronic Tension Headache.
Primarily this condition is treated by a Psychiatrist. Otherwise you can contact neurologist also.
