Wow, I never heard of that. I never realized you could actually make a migraine worse. Tell your mom I'm sending her happy thoughts!

No not seizures but I do get twitching sometimes in my head which my neurologist cant explain, when I get my ECG i will get back to you

I have "seizure-like symptoms," when I have really bad migraines, and I blackout sometimes but not full blown seizures. I am sorry your mom is having such problems. Has she seen a nuerologist? Hope she feels better.

yes she has a neurologist an d he has said that it is migraines that cause her seizures

my husband has had headaches and seizures all his life. he always has a headache to some degree, but it sometimes gets worse just before a seizure and is so severe after a seizure that he is laying in bed and covering his eyes with a dark wash rag. Has anyone had the same? and is there any drugs that relieve the pain?

My husaband has had headaches and seizures nearly all his life. The headaches never go away, and get worse after a seizure (severe migraines) Has anyone used a drug that stops or lessons the pain?

While I was caring for my Dad in his later years, I was very over-stressed. I remember having this terrible headache, then having a fit of unexplained sobbing while my arms were flailing around out of control.

Then, like flipping a switch, it all stopped and the headache was gone. The strange thing was that I wasn't feeling sad during the sobbing.

I've since learned that was a seizure. I've had them like that before. Sometimes I suddenly smell a strange odor of sulfur. That is also a seizure, I've learned. It's good to know what is going on, even if I can't do much about it. I don't get these things now, because I've been able to limit the stress in my life below those extreme levels.

Funny you should mention this. On February 9th I had my first seizure. I have had about 15 since then and been in the hospital for a week. They hooked me up to a 48 hour EEG and I had an MRI done. All with no answers. I suffer also from chronic daily (almost constant) migraines. The only explanation me, my family, and my doc can come up with is that it is somehow related to my migraines.

The nuero in the hospital put me on Keppra 1000mgs to prevent seizures and also started me on Cymbalta to help prevent headaches. I also found a miracle drug called Mazalt that stops a really bad headache when I have one.
I think the key to preventing seizures is to get my migraines under control.

I am still kinda in the dark with all of this, but this is what we are trying first to see if it helps. :)

I had seizures caused by migraines for a long time. My neurologist prescribed me Sumatriptan injections to take when the migraine started and they stopped the migraine going far enough to trigger a seizure. Worked a treat!
