Hi @hemichill, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I moved your post here where others were already talking about hemiplegic (HP) migraine. I did this so you'd have a group talking about similar topics who might discuss your HP migraines and the violent body thrashing you experienced recently during an HP migraine attack with the inability to speak for an hour.

Hoping others here in this chat can talk about whether they've had their migraines turn into a scenario like this before, such as @eastbaydave @loupy @aggie82 @sandra777111 and others. I'd also like you to meet @hopeful33250.

Have your doctors suggested any potential preventative options for the violent body thrashing during an HP attack? Did you have any injuries from this incident?
