Dear Gerry
I am sorry for the symptoms your wife is suffering
I read your query and understand your concern
It seems your wife is suffering from tensive headache
I think you will dominate pain if you start the right treatment
In my opinion a combination of daily treatment (Topamax or propanolol) and NSAID (ibuprofen) for some days will really help you
She should avoid caffein abuse, avoid amethyst drinks and don't miss meals
I don't think you have reason to worry too much, tensive headache is fully treatable
Schedule a brain CT scan just to be sure we aren't missing something
If it result is normal you have nothing to worry
Hope my answer will help you
Stay healthy
Best regards
