80% sufferers rate pain from severe to unbearable, while 25% resorts to emergencies. The diagnosis is made by a doctor based on symptoms and family history.
Women experience migraines three times more often than men.

Most felt relief from the third week, while after 12 weeks they rarely had migraines with much less intensity and for a very short period of time, which did not force them to be absent from work or affect their daily life.
Nowadays there are specialized headache centers in private and public hospitals where a diagnosis can be made and alternative treatments suggested.
