What is the main blood vessel that goes to the brain?
Carotid arteries supply blood to brain . Blood is supplied to the entire brain by 2 pairs of arteries: the internal carotid arteries and vertebral arteries. The right and left vertebral arteries come together at the base of the brain to form a single basilar artery. The basilar artery joins the blood supply of the internal carotid arteries in a ring at the base of the brain. This ring of arteries is called the circle of Willis. The circle of Willis provides a safety mechanism...if one of the arteries gets blocked, the "circle" will still provide the brain with blood.

What are basilar artery migraines?
Basilar artery migraines (now called basilar migraines) are a type of migraine variant. They have a specialized set of aura symptoms that sets this type of migraine apart from common and classic migraines. It has also been called Bickerstaff's Syndrome and Vertebrobasilar Migraine. Besides the normal migraine symptoms (photophobia, nausea, etc..) people with basilar migraine may experience: * An aura that can occlude the entire field of vision (up to and including blindness in both eyes) * Ataxia (poor muscle coordination) * Double vision * Vertigo * Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) * Impaired hearing * Impaired consciousness (from confusion to fainting, can include amnesia) * Numbness/tingling on one or both sides of the body * Drooping eyelid on one side * Hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of the body) * Impaired speech These effects generally last from 5 minutes to one hour maximum. The pain of a basilar migraine is felt in the back of the head, inside the base of the skull - if head pain develops at all. This location is where the basilar artery is located. The basilar artery is where the two vertebral arteries - which travel along either side of the spine - join together. This type of migraine involves ischemia, where not enough blood is getting to the rest of the brain for a period of time. Prescription vasoconstrictors, such as triptans and ergot medications, are contraindicated for this type of migraine. It is very important to be working with a headache specialist once you have been diagnosed as having basilar migraine.
