Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

There are several studies that state a link between migraines and seizures as co-morbidity, but till now, it is not sure that a migraine headache can cause seizures too.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Greetings.
