Diagnosis
In two surveys, patients reported a delay of 1 - 6 years in the diagnosis of their headaches. In one of the surveys, migraine-like symptoms (light and sound sensitivity and nausea) were major reasons for the frequent misdiagnosis by family doctors. About a third of the patients sought help from dentists and another third from ear-nose-throat specialists. In most cases, patients were inappropriately treated for other types of headaches (including having sinus surgery).
