I understood your query
At this moment , you have mild headache and nausea ,vomiting which is same as occurred yesterday which was relieved by taking medications as prescribed by your doctor yesterday.

you can take the same medication now to get relief. if you feel better after taking medication, then no need to go emergency but if it persist, then better you consult doctor and find out the actual cause.

Fibromyalgia does not seem to be associated with the present symptoms.
