Hello,
I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.
These supplements does not cause headache as a side effect.
I agree with your doctor's opinion that these symptoms are not related with the use of the supplements but it is probably a coincidence that they have started these days.
Continue drinking a lot of water and eating healthy.
Also, check your hemoglobin and do a complete blood count together with the other tests.
Let me know if you have other questions or concerns, or if you want me to review your tests, or if questions arise while you are consulting with your doctor. I will be happy to help.
