See your doctor: You may need to be screened for many different types of headaches. Your doctor will set you up to take a series of tests and also see a neurologist. If it is any type of seizure the EEG will help make that diagnosis as well as the full history. Take care and feel well.

Unusual: Sharp,shooting pains in the head are often due to neuralgia but don't travel temple to temple as a rule and aren't heard. It is recommended that you consult a neurologist for evaluation of these symptoms for diagnosis.

This is...: This sounds very much like a migraine headache. The "zaps" that you describe may be part of the prodrome ( warning signs before the headache begins). First monitor your diet and avoid foods that have monosodium glutamate (MSG), an d nitrites. Keep headache diary Follow up with your doctor
