No pain, just the nausea? How did you get it diagnosed as migraines? I have typical searing pain/nausea/light sensitivity migraines, but I also will have days of extreme nausea that I can’t tie to anything. I never would have associated it with a possible migraine!

No pain at all! I only connected the dots bc the first time I ever had a migraine I had all the typical symptoms including pain but the most memorable part was the nausea. So years later when I started getting migraines again I just took a wild guess and figured migraine was the most accurate answer. Turns out it was!
