Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello! I am a 19 years old and have been having migraines with aura since I was in 7th grade. I recently was put on a combined pill and during the fourth week I ended up getting a migraine with aura. I looked up online and it said that it can increase your risk of stroke. So, I called my dr the following morning and she told me to stop taking the pill and she would put me on the mini-pill. Now, I am one of those people who will read something and immediately think I have whatever I just read. I am still a little concerned about the stroke part. Am I completely in the clear of that now since I stopped the pill??? Do I still have to worry???? Also, my migraine was three days ago and I still have a slight headache. It does not interfere with my daily life but I can still feel it a little. Please let me know what you think.
