Vomiting occurs in one third of migraine and 30-40 percent of the headache is bilateral. It may come with more frequent or less frequent attacks once a week or once / several times, but in about 5 percent of cases, headaches may occur almost daily.
There may be some symptoms before the pain
Migrainees may notice differences called prodromes and symptoms called aura just before or 1-2 hours before.
