What r the lasting effects of a years worth of reduced cerebral blood flow due to vasoconstriction? does the lack of proper cbf result in cell death?

The long term effect: of "reduced" CBF due to TEMPORARY constriction of the vessels (as in migraine) are not really known but several studies have shown that even severe chronic migraine does not reduce flow sufficiently to damage brain cells! Hope this helps! Dr Z
