Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam.
I can certainly understand your concerns.
Since you are taking an aerial route, it is important that you get a complete evaluation of your headache.
Since the association of vomiting is present, I advise you to go for a CT scan of the brain as a safety precautionary measure.Please note this investigation is only optional.
I generally recommend my patients with oral tablets of diclofenac and ondensetron for effective control of headache and vomiting on a symptomatic basis.
Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe them to you.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
