Headaches after a stroke

Headaches after a stroke

My daughter suffered a stroke at the age of 14, she is now 18. She too has dibilitating headaches and we are beyound frustrated. I have read many questions but it seems that no one has any answers. I read a post by one doctor that said he has never read any data showing headaches after a stroke so in short stating that this has to be wrong? But there is overwhelming evidence that they do occur. In most cases I see that the headaches started before any medications were prescribed therefore I do not beleive that they are medication caused headaches. (there can be rebound headaches but the headaches exist even after time off the meds) My daughter has a shunt, damage to her third optice nerve, and damage to her right carotid artery. So if anyone ever finds answers please post!
