Brief Answer:
Get brain neuroimaging and provide more clinical details

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX
I have gone through your question and reports.
The EEG is usually advised in cases with suspected seizures and role in headache is not defined.
Though the EEG report is abnormal but in absence of any brain lesion or seizures the report should be interpreted with caution.
What is the type of headache, duration, intensity, associated features?
Any nausea, vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, visual abnormalities, seizures, loss of consciousness, motor or sensory loss in limbs?
Have you got some neuroimaging done?
In presence of headache and abnormal EEG you should get a neuroimaging done preferably MRI brain.
hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back with the above details.
