Hello! Thank you for your question on HCM! I understand your concern. I would like to know the type of headache ( pressing or throbbing), the location and any other associated symptoms like nausea, fevers, etc. Have you measured your blood pressure? I think that there are different conditions that can cause a new headache at your age : - uncontrolled high blood pressure - a vascular headache - a temporal arteritis - a sinus infection causing headache. I would recommend you to consult with a neurologist, have a careful physical examination for neurological signs, monitor your blood pressure, perform a routine blood test for inflammation, a sinus Xray for sinus infection. A brain CT scan or MRI would be necessary to exclude a possible intracranial lesion. Hope to have been helpful! Greetings! Dr. Aida
