Hello dear,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com. Your headache syndrome appears to be caused by severe 'Tension type headache'(TTH) accompanied with severe anxiety.TTH can cause sometimes very severe headache,along with soreness in the neck.Pain in the legs may be a part of the anxiety spectrum.

No history of nausea,visual aura and throbbing type of headache goes against the possibility of migraine.There is no history of any focal deficit,thus likely ruling out secondary headache.

Please do mental relaxation exercises/Yoga and it should improve your headache.I hope this reply helps you.
