Headache is one of the neurological manifestations of hypothyroidism but it is unknown whether there is a relationship between hyperthyroidism and chronic headache. Thyroid function tests were performed in 30 patients with chronic headache. Six were found to have hyperthyroidism and none had hypothyroidism. Thyroid testing may be useful for differential diagnosis of chronic headache, and indicates that headache could be caused by hyperthyroidism.
