Hi all
Am new to migraines. Am 42 years old and 3 months ago had first one. I thought I had heart attack. But things didn’t add up cause I didn’t had chest pain nor arm pain. Just slurred speech
Luckily I had morphine left over from kidney stone I had month before migraine attack. But morphine didn’t work. Had to take Advil and Tylenol too. Than I fall a sleep and when I woke up I was just tired but head was fine.
I went to fam doc for something else and at the end I mentioned headache and… read more

My migraine triggers are barometric system (weather change) I get the migraine two days before the system arrives, once it arrives just like a snap of the fingers it’s gone! I live in WI
I’m looking to relocate for retirement (I thought AZ?)

I have been taking birth control continually (no break for a period) for over a year now. It has helped with my migraines which are linked to my menstrual cycle. However, my neurologist tells me that studies show that people who have migraine with aura should not take birth control pills as there is a higher risk for stroke. I am going to stop taking the pill, but I am worried about my migraines coming back like they used to. Any alternatives?

My auras range anywhere from loss of sight to left sided co vultions, and my triggers are just about everywhere word love to hear from some of you with this type..

Every month when I take my Aimovig inj for the first week it seems that I have terrible migraines and then I'm better. Anyone else!? And yes... barometric/environmental systems reek havoc on my headaches also. When
weather is nice, not too hot, not too humid, just right I feel pretty good. But I also can tell way beforehand when rain is coming, or heat w/humidity,etc. too cold 🥶❄️, etc. I have Fibromyalgia too. The two seem to go hand in hand unfortunately!

What I mean by strange speech patterns is trying to say something and it takes two or three tries to say it or scrambling something and it severely. The last couple of migraines I've noticed that it takes two or three times to say something. It's not slurred, just it seems like my brain can't put two and two together to make what it wants. I had one coming on the other day and I was supposed to say did you want milk in your cereal but it came out did you want cereal in your milk? I'm wondering… read more

Does anybody have or get any type of speech problems when leading up to or during a Migraine?
I develop a stammer and struggle to even get any words out. This then upsets me and thus makes my migraine come on quicker or makes it worse.

My neurologist suggested massage, chiropractor and PT on my neck and shoulders for a daily persistent headache suggesting cervicogenic/tension headache/muscular skeletal also.
