Aura migraines

I have had my first experience with migraines at the age of 18. Not knowing at the time what was going on I seeked advice from a doctor. A year had gone by when he finally told me they were migraines and finally put me on some meds.

When pregnant for my son and after birth my migraines became more frequent sometimes 2-3 times a week for a 3 years until they dropped to about 4 per year. Now at the age of 37 I am starting to have them every 2 days, I am of course going to seek medical advice and hoping it is hormonal changes but just wanted to share my short story for anyone experiencing something of this nature.
