I would say yes it is because I get the same. They are migraines that painkillers won't touch.
I would suggest that you assume the headaches are migraines and take a migraine medication to see if it works. If it does then it's migraine.
I take Zolmitriptan if I get a migraine now but because I also take a migraine preventative medicine now, pizotifen, I don't really get them any more.
