There are many variations on migraines, but there is that idea of what is a "migraine" out there. When I first started going to doctors about my headaches, I wondered if I could have migraines since I didn't have an aura before they started. I've since read that only a quarter to a third of migraine patients experience that.
I once had what was later figured out to be an abdominal migraine (the pain was in the abdomen, not the head). I went to the ER and actually came pretty close to having my appendix taken out!
I read an interesting book about the different kinds of migraine - I'll browse through "the stacks" and see if I can find it :)
