This : This is a complicated question that requires a lot more information. A detailed history and neurologic examination would be useful in this instance. It is possible that there is a connection but that diagnosis should be one of exclusion and not inclusion. I would advise that you keep track of your headaches on a calendar and look for any known triggers (info available on the aan website) before meeting with your doctor. Good luck.

Possibly: After a traumatic brain injury, people can certainly have ongoing memory and learning problems. A good evaluation would be neuropsychological testing.
