Let's be realistic. You can hear anything from anywhere, but there are real scientific facts: "classical migraine" very rarely causes strokes, and the risk increases if a female smokes and takes birth control pills. Migraine can be prevented easily by a competent neurologist. Why get "freaked out"? Get proactive and handle this.
