I would recommend getting in contact with your primary care physician so they can run some tests to see what the headaches might be caused by. It is hard to connect the headaches and neck tiredness directly with the surgery that you had, but if a nerve was hit, that could be the answer.

I am sorry to hear about your headache. It is hard to link your surgery to the headache. However, occasionally if your nerve (great occipital) was damaged for some reason during the sugary, this can lead to migraine headache. If that is the case you need a nerve release Good luck
