Extractions: Adapted From: Migraines For Dummies As if migraines aren't big enough mischief-makers as it is, they also like to sing show tunes and take on different personas. So here we turn to migraine variants Abdominal migraines, which are sometimes diagnosed in children, are unusual because they cause pain in the stomach and lead to nausea and vomiting (sometimes without a headache). A child who complains of recurrent pain in his stomach may be experiencing abdominal migraines. Children who suffer from abdominal migraines are likely to have migraine headaches in adulthood. Abdominal migraines are usually treated with anticonvulsant drugs. The basilar migraine was once known as the basilar artery migraine, or BAM. It was considered a problem that was found primarily in young women and adolescent girls, but it occurs in both sexes and all ages. Basilar migraines are extremely rare, but they have the potential to be a serious health hazard in that they can lead to a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke. Symptoms to watch for are double vision, partial vision loss, terrible vomiting, dizziness, loss of balance, slurred speech, lack of coordination, numbness (on one or both sides of the body), weakness, and confusion. These symptoms typically go away at the onset of the actual headache, although they may last for days after the pain disappears.

Extractions: Cyclic vomiting syndrome is a rare digestive disorder that affects children and adults. This disorder is characterized by chronic nausea, vomiting, extreme fatigue, motion sickness, abdominal pain and, in some cases, dizziness (vertigo) that may last for hours to days. These episodes of symptoms seem to be similar in onset and duration for each affected individual. The exact cause of cyclic vomiting syndrome is not known.

Imigraine.Net B. Todd Troost, M.D. The most wellrecognized type of migraine equivalent is abdominal migraine, inwhich cyclical vomiting, periodic attacks of nausea, or abdominal pain occur http://imigraine.net/migraine/othervar.html
Extractions: Less common varieties of migraine are the so‑called migraine equivalents and unusual varieties of complicated migraine. "Migraine equivalent" is a term used to denote conditions or symptomatology believed to be migrainous in origin but without the typical history of either classic or common migraine headache. While the idea of migraine equivalents has not always been well received, according to Sacks the concentrated experience of working with migraine patients must convince the physician, whatever his previous beliefs, that many patients do suffer repeated, discrete, paroxysmal attacks of abdominal pain, chest pain, fever, etc., which will fill every clinical criteria of migraine save for the presence of headache. Very rarely true abdominal migraine occurs in adult life. In this situation there may be sudden severe abdominal pain with vomiting and even abdominal rigidity. The usual brevity of the attack or previous similar benign episodes or strong history of migraine help confirm the diagnosis. Other migraine equivalents include periodic diarrhea, fever, mood changes, and possibly attacks of chest pain known as precordial migraine. Acute confusional states have been attributed to migraine in juveniles.

Extractions: I still remember clearly the first time a Migraine disrupted my life, I was just six years old and in the first grade. I looked sick enough that the teacher asked me to put my head down on my desk. I still recall looking through the tall classroom windows, with the blinds drawn all the way up and dark battleship-gray fluffy-bellied clouds looming as part of an approaching autumn thunderstorm. Unbeknown to me at the time was that atmospheric pressure changes, induced by weather fronts, was a major Migraine trigger, a fact I will learn later in life. I marveled as the clouds seamed to hover over one side of the playground, and the bright and painful afternoon sunlight on the opposite side of a baseball field, a chiaroscuro effect. "USDA Roadside View" To this day, dramatic skies play a dominant roll in the landscapes I produce as an artist. The pain of my Migraines throughout my life has been like being tortured by invisible terrorists. An acute severe Migraine is difficult to explain to a non-suffer. Put it this way; after enduring the so-called 'headaches,' you don't fear other things, such as dentists and bullies. But you do fear having to explain to your childhood friends why you don't want to go out to play basketball. Better to play in pain than say "I have a headache", as that just invites bullying because kids just don't understand what they have not experienced.
Migraine Types abdominal migraine; Basilar Migraine; Complicated Migraine; Cyclic Migraine Syndrome abdominal migraine is one of the variants of migraine headache. http://womenshealth.aetna.com/WH/ihtWH/r.WSIHW000/st.48340/t.48425.html
Extractions: The attacks are characterized by periodic bouts of abdominal pain lasting for about two hours. Along with the abdominal pain they may have other symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, flushing or pallor. Tests fail to reveal a cause for the pain. Occasionally there may be EEG findings suggestive of epilepsy but this is rarely related to seizures. Medications that are useful for treating migraine work to control these attacks in most children. Back To Top Basilar Migraine When migraine affects the circulation in back of the brain or neck, it can cause Basilar Migraine or Bickerstaff's Syndrome. It occurs most frequently in young women. Dizziness, double vision, loss of balance, confusion, slurred speech, fainting and disorientation can occur. During the acute headache, some lose consciousness. Often these patients are mistakenly thought to be intoxicated, under the influence of drugs, or suffering from other conditions. A previous history of migraine is helpful in making the diagnosis. 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.
