Husband has some rare chronic immune conditions. He also suffers from headaches and had something migraine-like last year.
This week he had a sudden severe one sided headache, pain in his face and jaw on one side, a drooping eyelid on one side and cold hands. On advice from 111 he went to A&E. They did not scan him and said on the basis of observation that it was a migraine. The headache and the other symptoms have waxed and waned the last few days. Today he also has muscle aches and is very fatigued. He’s getting a covid test.
We have a GP appointment for him tomorrow but I’m beside myself with worry and I just don’t know what we should do. This seems very atypical for a migraine. Is there anything we should be looking for or asking about? Has anyone experienced anything like this?
