Hello,

Since the CT scan came back negative and there is no improvement with current treatment, you should consider other options for treatment.

For example, Botox injections may relieve headache symptoms in tension-type headaches.

Stronger drugs such as opiates may be an alternative also. Discuss with your Neurologist for these issues.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
