It can be hard to tell the difference between an aura, which is a visual disturbance common with migraines, and a form of stroke known as a transient ischaemic attack (TIA).

Too often are early stroke symptoms misinterpreted as the signs of a pending migraine – a mistake that can be very harmful, according to Dr Hartmut Göbel, who practises at a pain hospital in the German city of Kiel.
