Teri Roberts, who is a wonderful source for migraine info, posted an article today reminding everyone of the link between migraines and strokes.

It is a scary thing to think about, but with my family history and my medical history, I have a higher chance of having a stroke before I ever even think about being 50 or older. Mom doesn’t turn 50 until next year and she already has spots of possible damage that show up on an MRI. Which makes it extremely important to find the right doctor and try to keep things as under control as possible.
