When we think of Migraine we often think it is just a very painful headache. The reality is that the attack usually has several symptoms and can be broken down into four phases. We might experience some during one attack or we don’t experience during the next. Not everyone experiences all the phases at one point.
The four phases of a potential Migraine attack in which they occur in order are Prodome which is sometimes called preheadeache; Aura the most talked about symptom; Headache the most debilitating and postdrome.
If we pay closer attention to our bodies we will distinguish the changes and determine if we are having another migraine attack.
