Nasal congestion, headache...sinus or Migraine? Keppra?

Question: Nasal congestion, headache...sinus or Migraine? Keppra?

Answer:

Dear Migraine sufferer;

I have had good success with Keppra for migraine prevention. In fact, I showed the first data using this compound for migraines and other painful disorders. Give it some time to see if it helps. Your doctor may also need to adjust the dosage to help you get maximum benefits from it.

Good luck,

Dear Migraine sufferer,

The congestion you mention can also be a Migraine symptom. In fact, research is showing that the vast majority of what people think are sinus headaches are actually Migraines. Discuss this with your neurologist the next time you see him. In the meantime here's some information:

Sinuses Giving You a Headache? It's Probably a Migraine.
If you've tried various over-the-counter sinus medications to relieve your sinus headaches to no avail, there may be a good reason: chances are you don't have a sinus headache at all. Nearly 9 in 10 people with sinus headache symptoms likely are suffering from Migraines.
