Morning headaches. Why?

•How often do you experience headaches? What kind of pain accompanies your headaches?
•Where are the headaches located and what words describe your headaches (piercing, splitting, pounding, blinding, throbbing)?
•What triggers your headaches — certain foods, hormonal factors (menstruation in women), stress, environmental factors (certain weather patterns)?
•Do you experience any other symptoms before onset of a headache, such as dizziness, sensitivity to light or vomiting?
•What, if anything, provides relief during these headaches? Do you lie down in a dark room, or do you keep moving? Do you use over the counter pain medication, and is it helpful?
•What kind of medications do you take? It is important for your healthcare provider to know all of the medications you take, both prescription, over-the-counter, or any herbal supplements. Take a complete list of your medications with you and be sure to include everything, even if you think it is unrelated to your headaches, including such substances as birth control pills, vitamins, antacids, or anti-depressants.
