Q: constant headache treatment ideas

i'm wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this, as my doctors are just plain out of ideas.
I have had a headache now for 9 months. It never goes away just increases and rarely decreases in pain level. I have seen 27 specialists for just about everything ( mri's cats,sleep study, neuro,eye you name it, i've seen them) and in the end found a bulging disk in my neck for which I had a epidural done with no sucess in helping my headache. ( it only made it worse)
I've taken so many different medications for it(topamax, trileptal and dozens of others) and still nothing. Bending over, lifting anything over 5 pounds and most daily activities just make it worse with dizziness fatigue and occasional blurred vision which leaves me spending most my time in bed just trying to get the pain to a managable level. I see a pain management specialist for bi weekly shots in my neck and base of skull and have therapy with stretching and deep tisue massage on my neck 3 times a week as well
If anyone has experienced this or know someone that has and found something that helped in any way, please please please let me know!
Thanks!
