Unlikely: Classically, subarachnoid hemorrhage presents as the "worst headache or one's life." very rarely patients will have less severe headaches from a small hemorrhage (sentinel). You should talk to your doctor about getting brain imaging.

NOT AT ALL POSSIBLE. Your prior headaches may be possible migraine events, and have your doctor assess. A subarachnoid hemorrhage is a critical event causing disabling symptoms, and 50% of sufferers do not survive to even be admitted to the hospital.
