Neurologist,  's  Response
Thanks for the query,

She may be having migraine headache. You may consult a local neurologist for the evaluation. Medications that will be helpful are topiramate, valproate, propranolol. You need rest, relaxation, regular food/sleep habit. I do not think that you should use these herbs.

Hope this clarifies
Best wishes
