My sister has them, and so did my Mom. It's scary every time it happens. If you have stroke symptoms, please don't hesitate to get checked out!

No, they aren't classic migraines. A classic migraine features an aura, which is usually visual, nausea; heightened sensitivity to sounds, smells, and light; and pain. The hemiplegic migraine is the migraine equivalent to a grand mal seizure.
