How do physicians diagnose a migraine?

Doctors diagnose migraine by asking questions about your symptoms to find out if your experience 1) will fit the criteria needed for diagnosis of migraine 2) if your symptoms indicate there may be another cause for head pain and other symptoms.Because Migraine is primary (not caused by something else) and a diagnosis of exclusion, sometimes MRI/MRA or CT scans are used so that the physician can see visually whether there may be a physical cause within the brain or brain's vascular system that may be triggering the pain.Below are the criteria adopted by the International Headache Society for two main types of migraine headache - without aura and with aura. The criteria are used as a framework of the most predominant symptoms suffered by migraineurs. They do not describe the experience of every migraineur.Diagnostic criteria for Migraine Without Aura:Migraine without aura: at least 5 attacks fulfilling criteria B-D.Headache attacks lasting 4-72 hoursHeadache has at least two of the following characteristics: unilateral locationpulsating/throbbing qualitymoderate or severe pain intensityaggravation by or causing avoidance of routine physical activityDuring headache at least one of the following: nausea and/or vomitingsensitivity to light and/or soundNot attributed to another disorderDiagnostic criteria for *Typical Migraine With Aura:At least 2 attacks fulfilling criteria B-DAura consisting of at least one of the following, but no motor weakness**: fully reversible visual symptoms including positive features (ie, flickering lights, spots or lines) and/or negative features (ie, loss of vision)fully reversible sensory symptoms including positive features (ie, pins and needles) and/or negative features (ie, numbness)fully reversible dysphasic speech disturbance (stuttering, slurring, or aphasia)At least two of the following: Additional homonymous visual disturbance (which means a loss or blurring of visual in the same visual field in both eyes) and/or unilateral sensory symptoms (loss of sensation that occurs on one side of the body - such as numbness of the face or extremity)at least one aura symptom develops gradually over ≥5 minutes and/or different aura symptoms occur in succession over ≥5 minuteseach symptom lasts ≥5 and ≤60 minutes***Headache fulfilling criteria B-D for Migraine without aura begins during the aura or follows aura within 60 minutesNot attributed to another disorder*There are categories of atypical migraines. This diagnostic criteria only lists the most common and prominent features of the typical migraine with aura.**Motor weakness associated with migraine (when no other physical cause is found) indicates atypical migraine, such as familial or sporadic hemiplegic migraine.***In other types of migraine, aura may last longer than one hour, particularly in subtypes such as hemiplegic migraine where they may last a day or more. A rare complication of migraine is Persistent Aura without Infarction, which means that the aura phase may last for weeks, sometimes months or longer, but scanning of the brain do not indication that a stroke has occurred, meaning that damage to the brain is not at fault for the neurological symptoms.

Symptoms of migraine?

Symptoms of migraines can vary wildly from person to person. There are many different types of migraine, which is a recurrent neurological disorder. Each type has their own set of possible symptoms.General Diagnosis:When a doctor is looking to diagnose migraine there are certain specific points he is looking for. Below is the criteria used by the International Headache Society. These points do not cover every migraine sufferer's experience, but are meant to provide a framework of most common symptoms for physicians:A: 5 or more episodes for migraine without aura, 2 or more episodes of migraine with aura.B: Attacks lasting 4-72 hours.C: Headache quality has two of the following:1) pain is on one side of the head2) pulsating quality3) moderate or severe pain quality4) pain is aggravated by physical activityD: During headache at least one of the following:1) nausea and/or vomiting2) sensitivity to light and soundE: Not caused by another disorder.Prodrome:The first phase of a migraine is caused the prodrome phase. While all people go through this phase, approximately only half of the people will be able to identify it. It can best be described as feeling generally bad for hours or days before you get a migraine, although some people may only experience negligible symptoms, or symptoms which do not make a person feel ill (such as extra yawning, or hyperactivity). The array of possible symptoms and the fact that they can easily be caused by something other than a migraine are why the prodrome phase is unable to be identified by so many sufferers.Aura:There are two main categories of migraine - classic migraine (migraine with aura) and common (migraine without aura). After the prodrome phase, the aura phase of a migraine begins. The most well-known migraine auras are visual disturbances, but auditory hallucinations, dizziness, problems speaking, and other things are also known to occur. The aura phase can last for 15 minutes to a couple of hours and can overlap into the next phase. In the rarer subtypes of migraine, people can have what is known as a persistent aura, which can last for days or weeks.Headache:Next, the actual headache phase occurs. Migraine headaches are generally described as one-sided and throbbing or pulsing, but that isn't characteristic of everyone. Some people have the pain on both sides of the head, certain types of migraines involve headache pain which is at the base of the skull. There is also a type of migraine that does not involve head pain - but sufferers experience the prodrome, aura, postdrome symptoms - as well as other symptoms of the Pain phase beside the actual pain.Most times, the pain of a migraine headache is not responsive to over-the-counter medication such as acetaminophen, although some people are lucky are will respond. The earlier you are able to take such medication (whether OTC or prescription) the more likely a chance you have to disrupt the headache cycle, which is why it is so important to identify the prodrome and aura phases.Most people also experience nausea, though not everyone vomits. Other symptoms are vertigo or lightheadedness, sensitivity to light, sounds, smells, and/or touch, a tender scalp, stuttering, fatigue, sweating, and an inability to concentrate.The headache phase of a migraine usually lasts 4-72 hours.Postdrome:Finally, the postdrome phase is the recovery phase. It may last a few hours or a few days. It can include fatigue, mood alteration, a lingering headache, et cetera.Please note that if you have a migraine that lasts more than 72 hours you need to contact a medical professional. Migraines that last this long have been associated with extremely rare but serious complications, and you need to make sure that everything is okay.
