Migraine Basics
Migraine is a neurological condition, not simply a bad headache. These articles cover what distinguishes it from tension-type and cluster headache, what happens across the phases of an attack, and what aura is when it appears.
Start here if you are working out what you are dealing with. What sets an attack off is covered separately under triggers.
