When I first read your story, it sounded like you were suffering from
a typical chronic tension headache, but as I read on......
You're suffering from all the Neuropathy; all the symptoms of
a bad reaction from the chemical therapy. You've told your
oncologist, and it's being ignored?
You owe it to yourself to make a appointment with another
oncologist that's not of the same group or organization as
your present one, and get another opinion regarding the
treatment best for you, if any.
Many oncologists have recently been stepping away from the
arbitrary prescribing of chemotherapy, and allowing their patients
to get healthy instead. They're finding that the overuse of the
toxic chemicals are more of a detriment, than a benefit.
Get another opinion or two, there's no reason to subject yourself
to torture; you do not have to get sick to get better.
Think healthy.

Treatment
Maybe they can try another chemo altogether. Guess it is a process of elimination. Hope you feel better soon.

Are you having Zofran for nauseau? This gave me headaches. I went with Aloxi in my drip instead and Ativan in pills for after.
Hope it levels out for you.

Chemo Options
I hope they try another chemo. My sister-in-laws daughter had colon cancer, her chemo caused severe seizures, so she gave up her chemo. Her onc, didn't offer any other type
of chemo, which today, having learned a bit about our cancer, real pisses me off.
She died within a couple of months of stopping the chemo. If your onc, isn't trying another type of chemo, then try another onc, would be my personal opinion.
