Migraines aren't taken as seriously by doctors if you dont have a visual aura...
Post Body

Seriously, WHY do all of these medical sites say "it can only be _______ migraine if it has an aura". Without an aura, its just not taken as seriously? My neurologist stopped digging at a certain point because I didn't have auras, even though my migraines make half of my face unmovable and droop.

Anyone else experience this frustration?

EDIT: just wanted to clarify, im referring to the more specific diagnosis of migraines, like in my example im thinking of hemiplegic migraines. this cant be a disgnosis without an aura, despite me fitting all the other symptoms.
