How should I handle this?

Hi everyone:

So I am currently in my senior year of high school and I have a question about how I should address something. I am a strong student taking a strong schedule (5 hard AP classes). I have decent test scores, ECs, etc. and I am looking to go to a top 30 school and maybe even a low/mid ivy. However, in the past month, I have had worsening headaches (posibly migraines according to the doc) that have caused me to miss about 45% of my school days and thus pushing me pretty far behind. At most I will most likely get 2 Bs but I have only gotten 2 Bs in all of high school so this wouldn’t look good at all. Should I address this for my RD schools? (I applied EA to 2 places and didn’t mention it). The only problem is the semester for my school ends after apps. are due so I wouldn’t really know my full situation and I can’t have my counselor write about it because she already sent off her letter.

Thanks!
