Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. You have persisting headache and problem in getting tensed quickly. The headache is present chiefly on top of head and is associated with chest and epigastric discomfort. The location of headache and association of headache with tension suggest more towards tension headache. But your ESR is in higher range and shouldn't be ignored. Raised ESR and severe throbbing pulsatile headache chiefly in temples can be the presenting feature of temporal arthritis, though your symptoms are different. Still I'd advise you to visit a doctor for evaluation and to rule out this. In tension headache low dose Amitriptyline, Nortriptyline etc drugs are used. These drugs help to control the headache and result in improvement. Apart from this for symptomatic relief drugs like Paracetamol or Diclofenac etc can prove useful. Please consult a doctor for detailed prescription.

Thanks, I hope this helps you. Take care
