Are you able to go to a different practice? I know that's not always an option, but it might be helpful.
Scans are pretty serious, they don't send you to one lightly because of the expense, and also, for CT scans, the radiation. But there may be some blood tests that could identify an underlying problem, idk.
I had migraines for years before being offered a scan. But they were never ongoing. They've now got to the point where pills don't work. Fun times.
Sometimes, complementary therapies can help. Sometimes, I see my osteopath for headache relief. Have you tried something like that or is that not your kinda thing?
Is it normal to have a headache for 2 months?

Have you been seeing the same doctor eqch time? If so, you should get a second opinion.
Have they run any tests or scans or just sent you off with medication?
