• Chronic Migraine: attacks occurring on 15 or more days per month
• Migraine with aura: temporary neurological symptoms like flashing lights, loss of vision, tingling, numbness, weak muscles, incoordination, or speech difficulties before an attack
• Hemiplegic migraine: causing temporary paralysis or weakness on one side of the body
• Vestibular migraine: causing dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems
