Probably needs eval: If your sister does not normally get headaches and this would be described as the worst headache of her life associated with vomiting, she probably needs to seek care immediately. Also of concern would be if she has a fever and rash.

Seek medical care: Take 600 mg of Ibuprofen now with a glass of milk or food. Call the clinic and get an appointment today. This could be a migraine, but it could be other things too. She should be seen today.
