A few months ago, I had a really bad headache that came on every day for about 2 weeks at about 5 PM and didn't go away til I went to sleep. It was focused around my right eye and temple. My doctor prescribed me Indomethacin and said to take it when it happens again to see if I have hemicrania continua. But it hasn't happened again. I still get baby headaches every now and then, but I'm not sure if they are "enough" or "the right kind" of headache to take the medicine to properly diagnose the hemicrania.
Do you suggest I just take the indomethacin next time I have a headache, or should I wait for that "particular" type of headache that felt more migraine-y?
