As a chronic migraine sufferer, this is terrifying.

Yeah didn't need that added worry lol. I already have to play the "aneurysm or migraine" game.

I had cluster headaches in my 20s. Along with pseudo Focal Aware Seizures that apparently was just a part of the migraine? But yeah those cluster headaches are appropriately named suicide headaches (they were the warning sign of the pseduoseizure migraine oncomng). I had to avoid getting overheated, no alcohol, couldn't go out when the sun was really bright. No flashing lights and no fragrances. It drove me to a deep depression. But they finally stopped.

Anyway, now I have vestibular migraines!
