Neurologist,  's  Response
Migraine is not just about having the same type of headache all of the time. There can be milder headaches in between the severe ones and even what you describe as sharp, short-lasting pains. They can be called "jabs and jolts."

Or this is a slightly different type of headache that fits in the category of trigeminal autonomic cephalgias. If this is something new for you and ongoing you should see a neurologist and have an MRI of the brain.
