Romanian podcast episode (Mihail Pautov host) interviewing neurologist Dr. Ovidiu Tudor about recognizing and managing migraine. Key points: migraine is a chronic neurovascular disorder (not just a strong headache) characterized classically by unilateral, pulsatile pain lasting 4–72 hours, associated with nausea/vomiting, photophobia/phonophobia, and causing marked functional impairment. Diagnostic threshold discussed: ≥5 typical attacks meeting duration and phenotype criteria. The episode reviews prodrome, aura (visual, sensory, language; 5–60 minutes), and postdrome; explains pathophysiology (cortical spreading depression → trigeminovascular activation → CGRP-mediated neurogenic inflammation); highlights hormonal influences (women affected more after puberty due to hormonal fluctuations), pediatric differences (earlier onset, shorter/bilateral attacks, abdominal migraine), common triggers (stress, sleep changes, dehydration, caffeine, alcohol—esp. red wine, tyramine-rich aged cheeses, weather/pressure changes, light/noise), and practical management: early acute treatment (analgesics, triptans, gepants), preventive strategies (lifestyle, supplements, beta-blockers/antidepressants/antiepileptics, botox for chronic migraine, monoclonal anti-CGRP antibodies as targeted prevention). Practical tools: MIDAS questionnaire example and scoring; red flags prompting emergency care (thunderclap headache, new severe headache >50 years, fever with neck stiffness, projectile vomiting at onset, focal deficits/seizure/loss of consciousness, change in pattern). Barriers: long delays to specialist care (~1.5–2 years on average) and many patients never see a doctor (≈40–50%). Campaign/site: recunoastemigrena.ro referenced for patient info.
