Hello,
Thank you for your question and welcome to Health Care Magic. I read your query and I understand your concern and the anguish that you are having.
Addison's disease is when you have a deficiency of adrenal hormone and also the hypothyroidism is causing the issues in you. You can start with some basic treatment to help you with the headaches:
Take paracetamol 500 mg 2 times a day
Inhale steam to help clear the nasal passages and reduce the headache
Drink lots of water
Follow up after 3 days. I hope that you are taking medication for the diseases. All the best.
Hope this helps you. Feel free to clarify further.
