Yes, it is possible to be in the middle of a Migraine attack without knowing it. There are 4 stages to a Migraine attack. Only one stage involves pain. A Migraine can be made up of one or more of those stages. If you aren't familiar with all the stages of a Migraine attack, you may not notice that something is happening.
