Complex migraines are a type of migraine that can cause neurological symptoms in addition to the usual headache pain. These neurological symptoms can be similar to those of a stroke and can include confusion, weakness, or even temporary paralysis on one side of the body. In some cases, complex migraines can also cause changes in vision or hearing.
To diagnose a complex migraine, your doctor will typically begin by conducting a physical exam and taking a detailed medical history. They may also recommend imaging tests, such as an MRI or CT scan, to rule out other conditions that could be causing your symptoms.

Treatment for complex migraines may include medications to manage pain, as well as preventive treatments to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks. Lifestyle changes, such as getting regular exercise and managing stress, may also be recommended to help prevent complex migraines from occurring.
