What Causes Severe Headaches Followed By Nausea And Fatigue?
2 years ago, I had a case of polymyalgia rheumatic and was treated using steroids. Thank God, it went away. Recently, however (in the last 2 weeks), I have these massive headaches that come on quickly, followed by nausea, loss of concentration, and a general feeling of malaise.

Hello,
These last symptoms may indicate for example a viral infection and are not necessarily related to polymyalgia rheumatica.
However, if the symptoms are the same with those of 2 years ago, relapsing should be considered too.
In these cases, getting evaluated medically by your Doctor is necessary to understand better the condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr Erion Spaho, Neurologist, Surgical
