Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You can take Gabapentin for pain. Gabapentin is effective for resistant headaches which fails to response to routine analgesics. Other options are Ketamine sublingual preparation which is used when all analgesics fails.

Wishing all the best.

Thanks.
