Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Your symptoms can be result of subclinical seizures also so I feel you should get an EEG done to rule out that. Also if headache or discomfort in head is associated with vision problems or vomiting it could be due to pineal cyst and you may require MRI to confirm that. If every thing is normal, then probably it is stress related.
Hope that helps
Regards
Dr Vineet
