Do you have any leak (discharge) from nose when you bend forward? Sinus headache can recur and it may not be due to CSF leak. If you have allergy or if your previous surgery was not adequately treated,  it can happen. And there are other causes of headache like tension headache , vascular headache etc. Please see your doctor again for further treatment..
