Chronic Migraines. Scheduled For MRI And Blood Work. Shows Thick Blood?

I have chronic migraines. No one knows why. I have had them for years and now it has become life changing with daily headaches and weekly migraines. I was just wondering if thick blood could cause this? I donated blood once and it took forever to give 1 pint. the people there couldn't believe how long it took. I have had two CT scans and I am scheduled for an MRI. I have had blood work - would this show thick blood?

Hello,

The exact cause of migraine is still not fully understood. Thick blood? what you mean is hypercoagulable state of the blood.
You may need to wait for your blood report and MRI for any attributable cause.
