Not everyone has the typical migraine or it could be a tension headache. Many people label all headaches as migraines and they are either tension headache, vascular headaches, rebound headaches, sinus headaches, allergy headaches.. Typical migraines occur with an aura, where you get a feeling like a flash of light or a smell prior to getting migraine, vomiting, most people don't get these, (I do) Migraines are commonly caused by food, too much sleep, not enough sleep, alcohol, caffeine withdrawal, caffeine increase, menstrual migraines You need to see a Neurologist to label the headache. Also, you need to keep a food diary to see what triggers it.

Yes there are a few. There is more than one type of migraine; normally a ,menstrual or stomach migraine will not bring with it the symptoms you mentioned. My migraines although severe are only preceded by an Aura, flashing halo of light in one or both eyes. Noise and light sensitivity does not affect everyone who has migraines, the symptoms and severity of migraine vary for most sufferers. Wikipedia has a lot of useful info on migraines, types and symptoms.

Yes there is, that type of migraine really hurts in the back of your head where your neck and head connects. If you squeeze that part of your head then it helps a little.

...so far i haven't encounter such complication...
...but if there such happened maybe it just a reaction from some parts of your body being affected...:P

I don't think so.

it's just a headache

Yes, migraine symptoms can vary. Not everyone has a classic migraine headache. If you suspect you have migraine type headaches, speak to your doctor. Your doctor can help you with a treatment plan. Some foods can trigger a migraine attack, so you may want to pay attention to what you've eaten before the headache occurs, and see if there is a pattern. Some common food triggers are chocolate, red wine, all dairy products except cream cheese and anything pickled. That pretty much covers my diet. Thank goodness mine seem to be hormone related. Hope this helps.
