Hello, Than you for asking the question. I have reviewed your history regarding previous history of tonsillitis. Which is MRSA infection. The drugs used in treatment of these type of infection will be Vancomycin and Linezolid. But as you are having periods now that may be the cause for your headache.During periods there will vasoconstriction that will precipitates the headache. You can drink lot of water and caffeine during the periods. If you are having severe headache you can take some analgesics. Thank you.
