What Do Sudden Episodes Of Sharp And Severe Headaches Suggest?

my girlfriend has had sudden severe headaches that come and go the past 1.5 months. They are sharp and painful, but don t last. I have migraines and the are persistent until I take Rx. She is 40 and said that one today caused her to pass out. She insists that she feels just fine now, but they come and go. She said something about having cluster migraines in the past. Thoughts or suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the most of the headache are functional in origin, migraine is also kind of functional disease, it may need to some functional medicines, and for that better to see the physician for her, before it labeled as functional disease it need to be rule out for systemic disease and for that some test are necessary, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
