Hi.  
I do have a short question for the native english speakers here…

Despite the fact that I have been learning english for a couple of years now, I have a small “problem” I don’t 100% know the answer for. :hang:

What other word could one use instead of “get” in e.g. this sentence in combination with headache?  
Are you getting headache while working on your computer for longer hours?  
------

Become? Receive? …

Thx in advance for your help.
