A member asked:
Its been 5 days post severe migraine, i still feel like i am not awake and the normal day seems like a dream, i have trouble understanding, concentrating on, remembering things etc... is this brain fog and is this normal and how to resolve this?

Typical episodes of severe migraine have about 24 hrs of post-drome following the active headache. 5 days is too long, raising potential concerns for ischemia, such as a small stroke. This needs immediate attention through an ER or Urgent Care Center. You cannot handle this on your own! See a physician, and likely a skilled neurologist.
