I have used nifedipene and it does not give me headaches and I just saw the surgeon and he recommended to use it as often as I can. I have never used nitro.

I had headaches with nitro, but not with nifedipene. May be it is a dosage for you, I use 1.3% and put about 0.4 ml, but it doesn't work always. I probably should increase a bit. Try to decrease nifedipene and see how it works. Good luck
