Hormonal/emotional/blood sugar/pressure changes.....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Sinus problems can be a possible cause to her headaches especially when signs of blocked/runny nose are present.

Other possible causes include:
- hormonal changes
- emotional
- changes in her blood sugar/pressure levels

I advise to keep monitoring her blood pressure/sugar levels for further evaluations together with ECG and echo-cardiogram.

Let me know if I can be of further help!
