What Causes Persistent Headaches?

I am female and 46 years old. I have had ongoing headaches for the last 15 days. My CT scan is normal and the only lab test that showed a difference was my hemoglobin that was 11 last october and is now 16.5 I asked for a neuro consult. What other considerations should I worry about. I am also asthmatic.

Hi
Welcome to Health care magic.

I went through the history you have provided here. It seems from the history that you are having persistent headache. Since your CT scan is normal this rules out intracranial causes.
The other causes that needs to be considered are refractive errors, ENT problems and primary headaches like migraine.

Hence you need to consult your physician doctor for evaluation and treatment.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Wishing you a good health and speedy recovery.
