Neurologist,  's  Response
Dear
I am sorry for the symptoms you are suffering
I don't think you have reason to worry too much
It is called hemicrania and is a primary headache meaning there is no organic cause provoking your headache
Once started treatment you will be fine
Schedule a neurologist check up discuss with him about my opinion and the possibility of starting amitriptyline and pain killers
Menstime avoid chocolates and caffein or energy drinks
Hope my answer will help you in right diagnose and treatment
Stay healthy
Best Regards
