What Type Of Migraine I Have
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
It sounds like a type of Hemiplegic migraine.
Not good to mix motrin, tylenol and advil all together.
Try Aleve with an anti nausea like gravol. That works for me the best.
For some people tylenol with caffine works great.
Be careful mixing pain meds. You can cause yourself problems and rebound headaches.
Oh my goodness. I don’t know what to say to your ? of what type of migraine that is. Being a nurse I think I would have to say maybe a TIA, which is a sort of ‘small stroke’ if that markes any sense. I’m so sorry for what you’re going through dear! Love and light always! Katie 🤓
This will sound crazy, but I bought a "My Pillow" and it helped keep me from waking up with migraines.
Hello, it sounds very much like my migraines. Chronic hemiplegic! Not fun!! I was initially told to go to A&E as my GP thought I might have had a TIA/Mini stroke. Facial tingling, numbness, odd vision, not blurred just not right. Limb weakness on left side but no loss of power or ability. All the symptoms but short lived! All tests, MRI. Results is Migraine. Had since 2016. On 30mg Amytriptaline every night. Sumatriptan, emergency meds when migraine comes on. I've checked all food types, changed diet, had daith pierced, reflexology. Nothing works. At least it doesn't terrify me now that I know the symptoms. Hope this gives a bit of insight.
My one hemiplegic migraine was the scariest time of my life! What would happen to my 10 yr old? Who would care for him? Etc. Couldn’t even manage a gown for going to CT. Too sick w vertigo, confusion etc to even notice a migraine underneath it all. “Just a migraine” after 8 hrs of emergent scanning and angio.
That was kind of insulting, don’t you think??!!
