you're a headache

Nine months ago Matt and I got married and moved up to Port Alice. Shortly after moving into our new house (trailer) I started getting frequent sinus headaches. I have had a lot of sinus headaches/infections in the past but these were different because they wouldn't go away with sinus medicine (or any type of medicine). So I have been getting use to these headaches, they aren't really life-changing or anything, but definitely make me a bit crabby (sorry Matt).
About a month ago Matt and I went down to the states to stay with my parents, we just got back yesterday by the way, and my headaches starting getting a lot worse. It isn't the same headache all the time but it usually centralizes around my eyes and sinuses. There feels like there is a lot of pressure being put on my eyes and it hurts to move them. I went to see Dr. Davis after a couple of weeks of these crippling headaches that were causing me to stay in bed most of the day. She prescribed me with muscle relaxers which would help if I was straining my eye muscles. So far these haven't helped at all (although they're great for my neck pain) they mostly just make me fall asleep.
I hate taking a lot of "drugs", especially when they don't work. Some days I'll be on a combination of muscle relaxers, sinus medicine, and ibuprofen. It never helps my headaches though! I am worried that they are getting worse, and now I am back in Canada with no medical coverage. So for the time being, these will be mystery headaches.
I'm saying all this to say please, please, please pray for me. I don't want to quit my job but I can't even get off the couch right now because of the pain I'm in. Please pray with all the faith you have that God will heal me. Thank you.
