Dec. She cannot explain the numbness. Actually she said she's not going to say that my pain is not real, or that I'm crazy but she has no explanation for the numbness and constant pain in my head. Said she didn't have a problem with me seeking another neurologist. I am left with no definitive answers. Sometimes despite our best efforts all the testing turns up unremarkable and we are left with possibilities but no definite answer.
Patients can have complicated migraine where they manifest neurologic symptoms.
If patients have disease in their basilar artery it can cause problems with balance, vision, swallowing, loss of consciousness but these are rare things. If you have had a stroke it should be seen on MRI scan. I still think you need better treatment of your headaches which may relieve some of your symptoms.
