Headache types: Medication-overuse/ rebound headache means taking an only-as-needed ha med daily ; chronically; as best as possible limit ibuprofen, tylenol, (acetaminophen) excedrin and others to 12 days per month. Other continuous has include new daily persistent ha, intractable chronic migraine, pseudotumor cerebri, among others. Try melatonin 3mg nightly till your neurologist visit. Good luck!
