Migraine isn’t just a headache—it’s a complex condition with symptoms that matter for diagnosis, treatment, and your quality of life.
The migraine aura is a set of neurological symptoms that can affect vision, speech, sensation, or even how clearly you can think—occasionally, it can also involve movement or weakness. Since 1998, we’ve drawn on over 7,000 patient accounts to build one of the world’s most comprehensive sources of distilled knowledge on migraine aura.
Our mission is to characterize all migraine symptoms by involving patients.
Art may provide an adequate medium to express and communicate migraine experiences.
Migraine aura is more than a symptom — it’s a window into how the brain normally works.
Is migraine inherited? Partly—but not entirely, even in identical twins. It’s more than just Mendelian genetics.
