Hello SVK, welcome to the forum!

Your doctors are clearly thinking neck... have they already, or do you think that other potential sources of the severe headaches should be ruled out? I've known many spine patients who have 'cervical headaches', but I think they come on gradually and don't get that severe on a regular basis. Some of them had the headaches resolved with cervical surgery, while others have tried (surgery) unsuccessfully.

You haven't mentioned MRI... If it were me, I'd want MRI results. Hopefully a fairly recent one and it must be after the onset of your new, severe symptoms.

Good luck to you. Please let is now when you have more info and try treatments. Your experience with cervical headaches may be useful to others.

All the best,

Mark
