During a cluster headache attack, it is more likely to see increased blood pressure than decreased blood pressure. The pain and anxiety of an attack causes a physiological response that results in stress and increased BP.

Why would someone have a headache after a vasovagal syncope?

Vasovagal syncope means that your parasympathetic nervous system (which calms and quiets your body) kicked in too strongly, causing a drop in blood pressure. This drop in blood pressure causes a lot of things to happen, two of which are fainting (syncope) and headache. The drop in pressure changes the pressure in your head as well, and the membrane surrounding your brain is sensitive to such pressure changes, and generally causes pain in the form of a head ache. When people take nitro for heart pain, the result is a drop in blood pressure, usually with an accompanying headache.

Can high blood pressure cause headache?

It can, but more typically, it does not. Usually, if there is a related headache, it is in the occipital area (at the back of the head near the neck), but it may be totally unrelated. Both high blood pressure and persistent or severe headaches should be evaluated by a physician. Sudden severe headaches need urgent evaluation and usually are caused by something other than high blood pressure, but it is not impossible for that to be the cause.
