I have been having migraines on and off for the past few weeks and sometimes i get really light headed and dizzy when i stand up i don't know wats causing it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I do know (IDK) : A migraine is not just simply a headache. It is should be viewed as an attack that is accompanied by various neurological and non-neurological features as well as headache. Lightheadedness and dizziness are associated factors like nausea, sensitivity to light..It also could be medication overuse headache. Rec: see your pcp for further investigation.
