I think it's pretty clear she didn't give it:

she could not put words to that formless shape and so she could not discharge it, could not discharge it and become innocent and unknowing once more.

So, the question is whether Trelawney has been carrying a headache since chapter 63 and has been within earshot of Harry. Doing a quick search on her name, 'prophecy', and one or two other terms, as far as I can tell there has been zero mention of Trelawney since.
