You might try checking the oil for a foamy, bubbly, not normal look. This would be another indication of head trouble. If pressure is entering the coolant system via engine compression, coolant could also be entering the compression chamber/engine oil.
A compression test also might tell you something about condition of head/head gasket. I would have that done as well.
Best of luck,
