Head ache.
Hello, I have been recently diagnosed for migraine by a neuro surgeon and took allopathic treatment for a week before starting homeopathy for long term treatment. Homeopathy treatment is going on currently.
I had a migraine attack (less severe in intensity) 2 days back. Since the last few days I am having on and off sudden pain in different parts of the head (forehead, sides of the head, on top of the head, behind the ears, on top of the eyebrows etc) This pain lasts for about a second and goes away and is recurring.
Google is throwing all kind of scary stuff at me. Can any neurologist please help me here. What could this be?
Thank you.

Recurrent Stroke
I had a stroke 1.5 years back. I got another stroke few days back. After my 2nd stroke dosage of Ecospirin has increased from 75 MG to 150 MG.
I also have developed Vitamin B12 deficiency . Current Vitamin B12 level is 104 pg/mL. For that I take Benfomet Fortee.
Apart from that I take Storvas 20 MG for Cholesterol. Right now , the cholesterol level is under control.
I don't have diabetis, hypothyrodism or hypertension.
Could you please evaluate my current CT scan report and give advise for a long term basis for better management and prevention of future stroke ?
I don't have much problem now. I have little bit speech deficit and less energy to get involved in day to day work. But I remain really positive . Please give step by step advise.
Please suggest if any more investigation is required to find out the root cause of recurrent stroke.
And if everything is well and good with the management , don't forget to appreciate my positive attitude !
