Migraines: What People Don't See (Infographic)

Updated on June 1, 2021

Below the surface, living with migraine can mean days spent in pain, missed appointments, and alternate days when you seem fine. There's so much more to migraine than meets the eye. Migraine comes with hundreds of possible combinations of symptoms, many of which appear invisible to outsiders.

Perhaps those who know you are aware that you experience head pain on occasion. However, MyMigraineTeam members with migraine say they often experience such additional symptoms as fatigue, weakness, nausea, visual disturbances, speech issues, gastrointestinal problems, depression, or anxiety.

Check out the iceberg and share your below-the-surface symptoms in the comments section below.
