A member asked:
Had migraine and got cat scan, doc said normal- what does a cat scan rule out in relation to my head pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See my earlier note: This was almost certainly a severe sinus headache. The CT scan found no structural abnormality or signs of injury. Migraines are not simply BAD headaches. They are unique symptom patterns and might even be less painful than other types.Ask the Dr who treated you for feedback. Best!
