My hubby has gone through this a couple of times in the past 10 years. They put him on blood pressure meds both times even though he doesn't have high blood pressure. He calls them his birth control pills. Both times the headaches got more infrequent then stopped. They did an MRI both times as well.
They also gave him Imitrex, which he took for a couple of weeks with the headaches but didn't help much.
@MarT:
Verapimil is the bp med they tried on me. I took it for about 6 months. I don't remember if it worked immediately or not. For pain I've tried Midrin, Fiorecet, and others, but nothing works. Imitrex made my headaches worse. My body is difficult I guess. Had MRIs and an MRA (checking blood flow) before too. Glad your hubby is feeling good now (I'm assuming).
