What kind of headache is it?? does it go away when you lay down? Did you have an epidural? It could be a spinal headache. It happens when you get shots in your spine, and it leaves the hole there. So when you are upright spinal fluid leaks and causes pressure on your brain...my mom had a spinal tap when they thought she had MS and got a terrible spinal headache. I had on after i had Navy also, but it only lasted for a couple of days. If yours is like mines was your probably miserable!! I could barely see straight. Treat for them is a blood patch, that's where they take blood and inject it into your spine to stop it from leaking fluid. I would call the doctor that delivered Kaigan and tell them what is going on. Good luck, hope you feel better.
