QUESTION:
I have had migraines since I was a teenager, I am now 50. Last month I started having an unusually high number of migraines (around 20 in March). I also started having seizure like symptoms. The periods and type of disassociation have changed 3 times I am now having vision problems in my right eye, some muscle weakness on the right side (headaches are almost always on the left), balance problems, nausea, and extreme fatigue as well. I am scheduled for an EEG and MRI in the next couple of weeks. I had a CAT scan this week that was normal. The neurologist has indicated all of this may be from migraines. Have you had other instances of migraines causing these types of symptoms. The headaches are not as frequent now (1 a week). Would appreciate any info, I am not sure what is going on with my body right now.



REPLY:
Your situation is difficult to answer or comment on. I’m glad you are having a workup by your physician. Good luck,
John Claude Krusz
