Seizure like episodes with migraines

I have experienced these seizure like episodes with my migraines. They have lessened with gabapentin and Amovig shots, but still there. More predictable now. I feel a certain odd way before they happen. The migraine is very intense in front part of my head, when I come out of it. Anyone else have this kind? How are you managing them?

  1. Hi there. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds really concerning. What do you mean when you say seizure-like episodes? I'm just curious about what that means to you.

    Have you talked about this with your GP or migraine doctor? Migraine can change throughout our lives, and it's always a good idea to be evaluated if new symptoms are going on, just to rule out other conditions.

    For what it's worth, I did see several different discussions about seizures or seizure-like episodes in our archives. But each person has a unique migraine experience and we don't know everyone's full health history, so it's impossible to say what is actually migraine-related. Just know that other people have shared similar experiences. I hope you can get to the bottom of this! Keep us posted. -Melissa, team member
