Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your question on HCM

I do understand your concern

As per your history is concerned you have migraine and let me clarify you clearly that migraine proceeds like this –[Proderm----Aura----Migraine attack-----Postdrome]

you may observe symptoms like this and this may vary from person to person-:

STAGE 1-[Proderm]-(2-3)days before you may feel constipation, irritable, depression, hyperactivity, neck stiffness, uncontrollable yawning

STAGE-2-[Aura]-You may feel visual phenomena, such as seeing various shapes, bright spots or flashes of light, Vision loss, Pins and needles sensations in an arm or leg, Speech or language problems,Ringing in ears.

STAGE 3 –[Migraine attack]-When untreated, a migraine usually lasts from 4 to 72 hours, but the frequency with which headaches occur varies from person to person. During a migraine, you may experience the following symptoms:
a)Pain on one side or both sides of your head
b)Pain that has a pulsating, throbbing quality
c)Sensitivity to light, sounds and sometimes smells
d)Nausea and vomiting
e)Blurred vision
f)Lightheadedness, sometimes followed by fainting

STAGE 4 [Postdrome]
The final phase, known as postdrome, occurs after a migraine attack. During this time you may feel drained and washed out, though some people report feeling mildly euphoric.

Hope you got your answer
