Hi I am looking for some advice please.
Is there anyone else who suffers from hemiplegic migraines who could help? 6 weeks ago I had a migraine for 1 day (or so iv been told), iv never really had migraines so just thought it was a bad headache. 5 weeks ago, 3 days after the migraine, I had tingling and numbness in my left arm and leg then the next day I woke with pain in my arm and leg resulting in me unable to carry out simple tasks. Since the migraine I have had a ct scan to rule out stroke and everything came back all clear, but nearly 6weeks since the migraine I am still in constant pain in my left shoulder arm and leg. I have been back and forth to the doctor and they are persistent that it is migraine related. I am not so convinced as I have never been one to have headaches in the past and don't suffer from them at the moment (at the start of my new medication I had a few headaches but that was also the most common side effect of the medication) and I don't believe nearly 6 weeks later still in chronic pain, just wondered what other people's experiences were and if it does cause this symptoms for so long. Thanks for reading.
