Full Question:
Is there a connection between migraines and epilepsy/seizure disorder? Or are migraines a form of epilepsy/seizure disorder?
Answer:
Hello;
There is a connection between Migraines and epilepsy, but exactly what that connection is has yet to be fully understood.
No, Migraines are not a form of epilepsy or a seizure disorder. Migraine is an independent genetic neurological disease.
Good luck,
