Asked for female, 26 years old from Trivandrum

Hi doctor, I am asking the question for my friend. She is an assistant professor in college, it's been a 6 more years she feels terrible headache everyday with eye pain. Cannot sit upright. Her whole body feels pain. Sometimes there is vomiting. Sometimes there is abdominal pain. The doctor says it is migraine. Migraine medications often relieve headaches. Very sleepy while taking that particular tablet. So she stopped the medication herself. The headache comes again. The pain is more in the back of the head. Nerve throbbing at the back of the head can be felt. She calls herself a tumor. Doctor what is really wrong with her?

Asked for female, 45 years old from Delhi

I am experiencing splitting, throbbing, pulsating headache since 17 days continuously. I sleep late at night and wake up late and sometimes have lunch very late. Breakfast is usually missed due to getting up late because of cold in delhi. I sometimes consume very less water too but on days when I eat dinner on time and drink proper water this happens. I do not have migraine or sinus and I feel this is something serious as it has been so many days. Am online whole day. What could this headache be? How can I cure it?
