Anamnesis

A 26-year-old female presents with an abrupt onset of continuous headache lasting for 6 months, without fluctuation in intensity and no prior history of headaches. The pain is moderate in intensity, bilateral, and shows little response to analgesics. CT and MRI scans are unremarkable, and cerebrospinal fluid analysis is normal.

Report this case — e.g. suspected re-identification risk.
