Had A Very Intense Headache Along With Breathing Trouble. Have Had Migraine Headaches Before. Suggest?

I had a very intense headache today, unlike I have ever had before. It made me cry it hurt so bad. I have had double migraine headaches before, and I know what to do for those. This was so intense, I didn't know how to get rid of it. I thought it was a stroke because I was having trouble breathing while I was having it. I really thought I was going to die.

hi.. thanks for using HCM..
you are having headache, which is very severe, previously diagnosed as migraine..
but still see your neurologist for ruling out other causes for headache.. migraine is the diagnosis of exclusion.. there is no diagnostic test for it...
get one CT scan done, and see your neurologist after that..
all the very best..
