Headaches and throwing up

My partner hasn't have a great appetite since his stroke over a month ago. Today he's had a massive migraine and has thrown up several times today.

 

Is this normal? He is walking around but is freezing cold all the time. He's stubborn and he won't let me call a doctor for a home visit.

Hi Sandy,

 

I would suggest urgent medical attention (dialling 000 for an ambulance) as migraines and vomiting can be a sign of another stroke. An alternative (although not ideal) would be to ring the GP and request medical advice over the phone.  Once you have sought medical attention, please contact us on StrokeLine if you have further questions.

 

All the best,
