Prodrome is one of those things I get asked about a lot. But not in the way that’s quite so direct.
Most people don’t know that what they’re asking me about is actually “prodrome.” The question usually comes in as something like, “I’m having [insert symptom]—why is that?”
In this episode, we’ll dig into:
The 4 phases of a vestibular migraine
What to know about the interictal phase
Symptoms of prodrome you might be missing
How to start tracking your prodrome phase
How to treat the prodrome phase
As mentioned, some people think they don’t have a prodrome phase of their migraine when in reality… they’re just missing it.
Prodrome is pretty cool because you can get yourself out of the attack simply by recognizing your symptoms. (Yeah, pretty powerful!)
