Confusion. I hate the disorientation that goes along with the migraine aura.
its hard to answer this with one word but these are some of the top frustrating symptoms : excruciating head pain, nausea and/or vomiting.
My 31 yr. son is suffering with a continual dibilitating migraine that is now 9 months long with no relief in sight. Local neurologist says she knows of no surgical proceedure that will help. His only med. assis. is thru PA state short term disability and GOD only knows how long that will help..Cleveland Clinic will not see him because of ins. even tho they tested him when he was young for same. Headache came his first winter after moving back to PA from living in southern (warmer climates) states for 10 yrs. We are feeling desperate and alone.
