Hello. Blackout and amnesia of the event, followed by severe headache is a serious matter. She may be having a subarachnoid haemorrage, or the blackout can be due to many other reasons.
Next Steps
Take her to any hospital emergency immediately, as she will need a urgent CT scan of brain and furthur evaluation. Thank you.

Hello There.
I can understand your concern, its a serious issue and there should be no delay in consulting a doctor preferably a neurologist. it could be related to brain and underperfusion of some part of the brain.
suggest you to take her to a hospital near you where you can consult a neurologist . she will require a CT scan also.
best regards,

Please consult a doctor immediately. The blackout can occur due to many reasons, hence it is difficult to advise without examining.
