Head zaps and migraine

[Jackiez]

Good morning all, Just wondering if anyone has experienced head zaps as part of a migraine.I'm still taking Sertraline and Mirtazapine and I haven't missed a dose. I got head zaps when I came off Paroxetine but they eased up as soon as I started the Sertraline.

Yesterday, for the first time in years, I got a migraine. A full blown painful, nauseating and blinding headache with light show included! The only thing that was different from previous migraines was the head zaps. I was, and still am, getting constant head zaps. I've even taken an extra Sertraline but they continue. Does anyone have any insight into this?

Thank you

I take Zoloft too. when you say head zaps, can you describe it a little?

see, I dissociate so I feel like my brain has a little seizure type thing every second when that is happening.

Talk to doc who prescribed it for sure, let them know...

can order a migrane head and face thing that people say works wonders for migraines, I use it for cooling my head....it does work very well, cheap on amazon, put it in freezer...

Hi Jackie, I just wonder what you mean by head zaps? Are these prolonged attacks as part of a migraine, or separate? Could you describe these?

The reason I ask is that I also have these, and mine are very severe. I'm grateful that I have a diagnosis, so I know what mine are.
