Headaches Types | Migraine retinal migraine Another rare migraine, the retinal type starts witha temporary, partial, or complete loss of vision in one eye. http://www.headaches.org/consumer/educationalmodules/completeguide/migraine2.htm
Extractions: Symptoms There are several types of migraine, all share basic features, and each person will suffer this headache in a unique way. Generally, however, migraine often begins as a dull ache and then develops into a constant, throbbing and pulsating pain that you may feel at the temples, as well as the front or back of one side of the head. The pain is usually accompanied by nausea and vomiting, and sensitivity to light and noise. The two most prevalent types of migraine are migraine with aura (formerly referred to as classic migraine) and migraine without aura (formerly referred to as common migraine). As we have said, migraine is a vascular headache, which means the headache is associated with changes in the size of the arteries inside and around the skull. During the pre-headache phase, blood vessels constrict; when vascular dilation occurs, the migraine begins. The blood vessels are thought to become inflamed as well as swollen, and it is believed that migraine pain is caused by this inflammation, as well as by the pressure on the swollen walls of the blood vessels. Most migraine sufferers experience two to four headaches per month; but, some people can get one every few days, and others may only have one or two a year. Most migraine headaches last at least four hours, although very severe ones can last up to a week. Headaches may begin at any time of the day or night; and while a sufferer may wake up with one, a migraine will rarely awaken a person from sleep.
National Headache Foundation: Complicated Migraine There is retinal migraine where the patient s visual symptoms occur from the retinaitself versus the portion of the brain involved in vision, as is the case http://www.headaches.org/consumer/topicsheets/complicatedmigrane.html
Extractions: COMPLICATED MIGRAINE In all these forms, there seems to be an increased risk of the migraine producing permanent neurological changes which may also correlate with changes on the MRI scan like those seen in stroke. Medications such as the beta-blockers, triptans and ergots are often avoided in these types of headaches for fear of increasing the risk of stroke. Calcium blockers and anti-epileptic drugs seem to be best for prevention. Smoking, the use of hormones in menopause and birth control pills are avoided as well again to decrease the risk of long-term problems.
Extractions: Homepage Most migraines seen in physicians' offices are migraine without aura (formerly called "common migraine") and migraine with aura (formerly called "classic migraine" by some). Migraine aura without headache is also quite common, and is seen often by ophthalmologists. Neurologists and headache specialists often treat status migrainosus, characterized by a headache phase of over 72 hours. The other migraine types are listed in the left side bar and are fully described in the Headache Classification Committee's classification (1988).
Migraine Headaches retinal migraine. Symptoms of retinal migraine are shortterm blindspots or total blindness in one eye that lasts less than an hour. http://www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/ucdhs/health/a-z/97migraine/doc97.html
Extractions: Vascular headaches are the second most frequently occurring primary headaches. Such headaches are caused by blood vessel abnormalities and constitute about 8% of all headaches. Migraine has been considered the most common vascular headache since the 17 th century. In the past few decades, however, evidence has strongly suggested that it is a much more complex brain disorder, which involves a complicated interaction of nerve cells and blood vessel dilation.

Media Migraine Headaches Signs And Symptoms of Migraine Two Categories of Migraine Migraine Without Aura (Common Migraine) Migraine With Aura (Classical Migraine) See Also: Phases Of Migraine A migraine is characterized by flashes of light that appear across the field of vision, problems with speech, numbness or dizziness. Migraine pains are typically intense and, at their worst; are debilitating, with weakness, nausea, sweating and vomiting. The senses are heightened and the slightest noise, light or movement unbearable. Usually, the pain is localized or especially intense on one side of the head or over one eye. The person may also suffer from irritability. He or she usually wants to be left alone and out of any direct light. About one in five migraine sufferers will experience an "aura" minutes before the onset of a headache. Women report seeing flashes of light and zigzag patterns and sometimes experiencing speech impairment, confusion and numbness in their faces and limbs. From beginning to end, migraine attacks may last for hours to days. In addition to the symptoms described, patients with migraine (with or without aura) may experience a prodrome, or symptoms which occur up to 48 hours before the actual migraine attack begins. Some patients, for example, may have food cravings, changes in mood, irritability, drowsiness, difficulty concentrating, nausea, diarrhea or excessive yawning.

Extractions: Central Retinal Artery Occlusion By Christiane Haddad, MD Central retinal artery occlusive disease (CRAO) is one of the most sudden and dramatic events seen in ophthalmology, though a less frequent chronic form also exists. It remains a disease of poor visual prognosis despite a multitude of studies and experimental trials. CAUSES The most common association is atherosclerosis followed by arterial hypertension. Carotid artery disease occurs in 45%. The difference in etiology depends on age; if presentation is at less than 30 years, it is more associated with migraine, trauma and coagulation disorders. I. Embolization A. Emboli from the heart can be: calcific, from aortic or mitral valve calcifications vegetations, from bacterial endocarditis thrombi, after myocardial infarction mural thrombi and with mitral valve prolapse myxomatous, from atrial myxomas mainly to the left eye B.
Extractions: Links BAM and Migraine Variants Though BAM is a migraine variant, and therefore technically belongs under the classification of "migraine," a BAM attack can also represent a form of "acute cerebral vascular insufficiency." The other forms of migraine variant are (1) retinal migraine, (2) opthalmoplegic migraine, (3) hemiplegic migraine, (4) facial migraine, and (5) migrainous infarction. Of these, only hemiplegic migraine has been found to be a dominant characteristic in terms of heritability in families. Hemiplegic migraine is also the only form of migraine for which a gene has been located. It is a gene located on chromosome 19 that carries the trait for hemiplegic migraine. Hemiplegia can develop either before or during a migraine. Though Basilar Artery Migraine is certainly a distinct form of migraine variant, BAM patients can exhibit the signs of hemiplegic migraine.
The Physician And Sportsmedicine Forms of this entity, called complicated migraine, include hemiplegic,ophthalmoplegic, basilar artery, and retinal migraine. These http://www.physsportsmed.com/issues/dec_96/diamond.htm
