a belated update: I experienced some neck pain along with the headaches and told that to the neurologist about the time that he wanted to in-patient me and run drugs through my body for three days. So instead he referred me to physical therapy. I don't know if it's an absolute diagnosis, but the therapy has helped a bit. The headaches aren't as bad when I know how to hold my head on my shoulders and sit with good posture (posture was something my mom always told me to do, but never how to do it. it starts in the lower back!).

With being a full-time dad a lot of activities call for looking down and stressing the muscles on the back of the neck, resulting in tension headaches. This feels more like a sensible diagnosis than anything else has. I'll type back as to whether it's ultimately effective.
