Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache Early Morning And During Nights

For the last couple of months I wake up with a headache and go to bed with a headache. I went to the Dr and she gave me a prescription for topiramate and it hasn t helped any. It seems to be getting worse. What should I do? Thank you. Sharon Hurst

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Before taking any medication you should get tested. You should do a MRI of head and neck and also an EEG. Don't take any medication without a specific diagnosis or recommendation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
