Postdrome
My migraines are not too frequent third and worst one this year. However, when I get an attack which always starts with an aura the headache is usually quite mild and I feel slightly nauseous but am able to carry on with the day. The postdrome is the worst for me I feel nauseous, brain fog, tired, and anxious. I'm now on day six.
Does anyone else experience this and what treatment do you use.
, thank you for joining the migraine.com community! We are glad to have you here. I'm glad to hear your attacks are too frequent, but even episodic attacks are miserable. Postdrome is rough for many of us as it comes with symptoms that can hang on for a long while. The migraine hangover is what many refer to it as. There is a medicine you can take for nausea. Some people use ginger or essential oil, like peppermint, to help as well. You may find rest and a good B complex vitamin helps to get you through the tiredness and brain fog. My husband uses mindfulness breathing exercises to help with anxiety and to calm his brain. I hope these ideas help you. It's no fun when an attack drags on for days. Here are a couple of articles you might find helpful as well. Let me know. Warmly, Cheryl migraine.com team
