The most common types of migraine are called ‘classic’ and ‘common’

Classic Migraine This is a migraine that can give a warning sign to the sufferer in the form of an aura, up to half an hour before an attack begins. The person may see dazzling lights or zig-zagging lines. Other symptoms of classic migraine may include:

Having difficulty speaking Feeling weakness in an arm or leg Feeling a tingling sensation in the face or hands Feeling confused

The pain of a classic migraine headache may feel like a severe pounding or throbbing. This may be in the front of the head, in the temple area, around the ear, jaw or eye. The pain may start on one side of the head but may commonly spread to the other side too as the migraine continues.

Feeling fuzzy and unable to think clearly Having mood swings Feeling tired Retaining fluid and feeling bloated Diarrhea and urination more than usual Feeling sick and/or being sick
