What Causes Migraines And Difficulty In Breathing?
I ve recently had major migraine headaches and problems breathing or the feeling that my breathing is labored, need air and feeling flushed. This happened all at once in the middle of the night and could not lay down for a while as feeling grew worse. What could this be?
Hello! Thank you for your question on HCM! I understand your concern. I think that the troubles with breathing may be just anxiety. But I would recommend to consult with a neurologist, have a physical examination for neurological signs and have a brain MRI to exclude other causes of these symptoms like a possible brain tumor or and intracranial vascular problem like an aneurysm. Thyroid function tests are also helpful in excluding thyroid disorders which can cause similar symptoms. Hope to have been of help! Greetings! Dr. Aida
