Association Between Vestibular Migraine and Migraine Headache: Yet to Explore.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To evaluate if patients with a diagnosis of vestibular migraine (VM) by the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD) criteria have meaningful differences in symptomatology and disease characteristics when compared to patients with concurrent vestibular symptoms and migraine that do not meet ICHD criteria.

Methods

Patients who presented for the evaluation of vertigo were provided a detailed questionnaire about dizziness and migraine symptoms. Patients were assigned to either VM cohort (met ICHD criteria for VM) or migraine headache (MH) cohort (met ICHD criteria for migraine with or without aura but not VM). Disease characteristics, symptomatology, quality of life, and perceived stress score were compared between the cohorts.
