Overview

Migraine
Migraine is a neurological disorder characterized by recurring headaches that are often moderate to severe in intensity. The pain is commonly throbbing and may affect one side of the head, although both sides can be involved. Migraine attacks may last from a few hours to several days and can significantly interfere with daily activities. Many individuals experience associated symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light (photophobia), sensitivity to sound (phonophobia), and dizziness. Some patients experience an aura before the headache phase, which may include visual disturbances, flashing lights, blind spots, or tingling sensations.
Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is a condition characterized by abnormally low blood sugar levels.

Keeping a migraine diary can help identify triggers and treatment effectiveness.
Hypoglycemia
Blood glucose testing confirms diagnosis.
