Migraine is much more than just a headache - it's a complex neurological condition. While head pain is often a primary symptom, migraines typically include multiple additional symptoms such as:
• Sensitivity to light and sound
• Sensitivity to motion
• Nausea and vomiting
• Visual disturbances or blurred vision
• Aura (sparkling/visual distortions across vision) These symptoms can be severe enough to interfere with daily activities like working, driving, or basic tasks. The combination and severity of these neurological symptoms, along with the head pain, is what distinguishes a migraine from a regular headache.
A MyMigraineTeam member noted that their migraine attacks are "really never the same," which highlights how migraine symptoms can vary significantly between episodes and between individuals.
