Mills, Our youngest had migraines, then as a teen had some other strange symptoms. An MRI showed spot on his brain described as a lesion, but fortunately the Neurologist said “NO” that it was just a spot of “old” damage and not causing his problems. Long story short...his brain was fine and it was his heart causing his problems. It is a hole called a PFO, Patent Foramen Ovale. Actually, they are very common and the hole patch is relatively easy compared to so many other things. Just mentioning this.....hoping and praying for her and all gets figured out.

Mills, Forgot to mention...Our son temporarily lost his ability to speak and lost control of one of his hands while at school.

Since the patch was put in about 7 years ago, I don’t think he has experienced another migraine.
