What are your migraine warning signs?

What tells you a migraine is on it's way or starting? What symptoms do you experience during the prodrome phase of migraine?

  1. Pain behind one eye.

    1. When i have cluster headaches

    2. Yes, psin in neck and around eyes

  2. Body fatigue and pain at the base of my head and neck.

    1. Unfortunately, most employers lack any understanding of what migraine sufferers face.

    2. Ihad botox for a while and it didn't help enough to keep going back. I have the right eye pain, light bothers, pain at base of my neck. I would be seriously nausiated. It would last for days. I would also get dizzy and any noise hurt my head. Then a few years ago my neurologist started me on a once a month injectable called Adjovie. I went from 6-8 migraines a month to maybe 1 or 2 in a 6 month time period and they didn't last as long. I also use Zomig nasal spray as my rescue when I do get one and I am helped in 10 - 20 minutes. I do feel your pain and it is very dibilitating.

  3. Excessive Yawning, pressure in head, nausea , light sensitivity, brain fog, aphasia

    1. Yes - I too begin yawning beforehand - before the pains starts

  4. Ears hurt, sore throat, stabbing in left eye
