Hi,

There is a rare type of Migraine called Migraine-triggered seizure that is sometimes found with people who have Migraine with aura.  If this is what is happening I would suggest seeing a Migraine specialist who is the expert in this area.

You may want to think of it like this: When a pipe under your kitchen sink breaks you call the expert - a plumber. You might call a handyman who can repair it, then fix the drain, the cabinets and paint the room if needed. But he isn't the expert you need for your broken pipe. Neurologists may be fine doctors, but aren't experts in any one area because they treat so many different conditions like MS, stroke, and epilepsy.  A Migraine specialist is a expert who only treats one condition - ours -  Migraine and headache disorders. Keep reading for information on: Migraine and Headache Specialists - What's So Special? Then you can take a look for a Migraine specialist on our patient recommended list.   It's important to note that neurologists aren't necessarily Migraine and headache specialists

Good luck

Nancy
