Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My friend is having severe headaches for the past few years. The doctor advised certain medicines but still, there was no relief. Once the headache starts, the intensity increases after some time and she is unable to breathe properly. She loses her senses for a short duration of time. Why so?

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

She might suffer from a migraine as per your above details and medication history. There is no cure for it. Only medications will help her to prevent migraine attacks. She has to continue the medications prescribed by her doctor. Her mother or sister may have a history of headaches. She must keep in her mind that she must not fast or skip food, take enough sleep, and try to avoid stress. Otherwise, she will have a migraine attack even if she is taking medication.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.
