I hope your neuro listened better than mind did, and was nicer. Having no treatment luck at Kaiser NoCal, I referred myself to the San Francisco Headache Clinic (2006-2008). The "famous" headache specialist there was able to diagnose my "rare" Hypnic headache type after 6 expensive monthly visits, which I appreciated and appreciated learning Indomethacin alone worked (while the variety of narcotics alone and in combo with many other meds he had prescribed, prior, had done nothing). I severed ties when he kept prescribing oral treatments for my acute hormonal migraines, though I told him that due to acute vomitting and diarreah, the oral meds all got propelled from my body and thus, did not help at all.
