How often do you get them? Do you have sensitivity to light, smells, or sounds? Definitely see a doctor because if it’s 4+ times a month they’ll be able to prescribe something. It sounds more like a migraine

I also get unbearable headaches. So much so I end up crying and puking. And if course both crying and puking make it worse. I’ve been to the Dr. many times trying to figure out the cause. I was referred to a neurologist and found out I had cerebellar tonsillar ectopia. But only on one side which they then ruled a “brain anomaly”. Evidently I’ve had it since I was in the womb. That said, it wasn’t the cause of my headaches. I’ve had lots of significant head trauma and I personally believe the scarring in the brain on top of other potential factors play a part.
