Headaches?: Please see a Neurologist if you get headaches and cant sleep. Further tests may be necessary to determine the causes of your poor sleep but awake cycle. if this has been "only lately" does this mean you usually sleep well and have no headache? If this is only acute then examine if you are more worried or stressed and treat with relaxation and counseling.
