A member asked:

What kind of headache is unstoppable and makes standing up unbearable? i've had 2 mri's and a ct scan. they were normal. my eeg was slightly abnormal.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You have a: postural headache. Your workup is nearly complete, but has a lumbar puncture (aka spinal tap) been done yet? Without fever, altered mental status or meningeal stiffness it is not likely to be meningitis. If you have postural headache, that probably means you are dehydrated or volume low. Take in 3-4 L of fluid daily.
