What Causes Intensifying Headache After Consumption Of Food Post A Fusion Surgery?

My husband had back surgery (fusion) and his dural sac was torn. It was repaired and additional testing shows no additional leakage. He has had a constant headache since the surgery which was 2 weeks ago today. He was hospitalized for a total of 9 days due to the intense headache. He is home now with medication and finds that his headache intensifies after eating. Does this make sense to anyone?
