Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of migraine like headache is more.
Your all symptoms like stabbing unilateral headache, nausea, vertigo like symptoms etc are classically seen in migraine.
So follow these lifestyle modifications for better symptomatic relief in migraine.
1. Avoid oily and spicy food.
2. Avoid fasting and take your meals timely.
3. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
4. Avoid excessive sun exposure.
5. Take propranolol and flunarizine combination at night time before bed.
6. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep your self hydrated.
7. Take sound sleep of 6-8 hours.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
