Signs and tests:
If a headache disturbs sleep, occurs whenever the person is active, is severe (especially in a previously well person), persistent, or other symptoms accompany the headache (such as drowsiness, vision changes, changes in movement or sensation, seizures, changes in alertness, nausea & vomiting, or other symptoms), a health care provider should be consulted to rule out other disorders that may be causing the head pain. Migraine headache may be diagnosed by the health care provider based on the pattern of symptoms, history of migraines in the family, and response to treatment. A physical examination will reveal no detectable abnormalities.
