      From Dashia December 15, 2008

      Sounds much to me like you had a stroke but an MRI is your best confirmation. when I had my stroke and had my first MRI in the er. it showed that I had previous transient strokes ( that I was unaware of) so sweetie be more proactive if you can; YOU ARE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE. remember to take pen & paper to the dr. if there is something you don't understand ask them to explain it in layman's terms & then you can come home and research on the computer. I wish you well. take care!! Dashia

      Have migraines for 15 years, I hope to know that the way I suffer is common as others with migraine.

      Treatments

      Botulin Toxin Working / Worked
      maybe worked to lessen migraine, but had illnesses after having so many botox injections
      Imitrex Working / Worked
      worked but after awhile it stopped working, changed meds
      Inderal Working / Worked
      still taking, don't know if it prevents them at all
      Maxalt Working / Worked
      worked at first but stopped as the other drug did
      Relpax Working / Worked
      worked but stopped as with all the triptans I've used
      Topamax Working / Worked
      worked, but I could not think well, could not remember things, awful
    • Close Stroke

      I was in hospital and was told I had a stroke, but after seeing the on call neuro, he said I did not. He said hat I was having a migraine.I had limited use of my right side, speech problems, and couldn't walk. I didn't know what was happening was not normal, my brain did not seem to be working. When one of my daughters saw me, she made me go to the hospital.They did all kinds of tests, CT, etc. I do suffer from severe migraines, but have never had one affect me like this.Thank you, Serena
