Frequent Migraines, Unable To Eat Or Turn Head Due To Pain. Is This Migraine Or Something Else?

I get constant migraines. They are usually just along my forehead but recently are along my temple, to my jaw and the back of my neck just below my head. They have been known to make me pass out, and the pain is so severe I cannot eat or even turn my head. These headaches.can last from 1 hour to weeks at a time. Is this just a weird migraine or something more serious?

Neurologist 's  Response
Hi,

Migraine headache can last for days, but it is unlikely to have neck pain and difficulty in turning head.

There is high chance of association with other causes of headache.I suggest you to consult nearby Neurologist for clinical examination and plan further evaluation (like MR venogram ) and management.
