Can Chronic Migraines Cause Muscle Pain In Upper And Lower Back?

I have chronic headaches, which I have been told are chronic migraines, but have a lot of muscle pain in the upper back and lower back, did have MRI a few years ago on my neck. It showed some degeneration at that time. The headaches are the main problem but wonder if they are associated with my neck and other muscle pain. I been tried on many medications for headaches without success. I am frustrated as neurologist does not seem to have any answers nor does rheumatologist. Any advice would be appreciated.

HI
Well come to HCM
Migraine is some what functional condition because this does not have any specific pathology, more over your muscular problem may also be due to the tense situation that you might be having, you better try to come out of this, in my opinion try some exercise, yoga, mediation, this would be much helpful to you, hope this information helps, take care.
