Hormonal migraine with aura (no pain)

Hello,

Thank you so much for your reply, kind sympathies and for the great article.

It was my family Doctor who replaced the IUD. It was a past family Dr. who suggested the IUD to help balance my hormones when nothing else was helping my aura go away. Each mirena I have had, sometimes taking months has brought me back to my normal self. My Gynocologist recommends the IUD as she has seen it help many women with menstrual related migraines (including myself). When I describe these symptoms to my Neurologist he refers to them as a hormonal, vestibular type of migraine with aura. I have been treated with triptans, Citolopram, Topimax and a beta blocker with no luck. In fact the Citolopram and Topimax reacted really bad this time and made me feel unsettled and the headache worse.

@suefish I know the feeling all too well. Also now I have disturbing and realistic dreams every single night — and it’s been more than a year!!
