Marta Waliszewska‐Prosół, Sławomir Budrewićz
Abstract
The effect of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the nervous system remains undefined. Some studies have shown that headache is one of the most common symptoms and often the first neurological symptom in patients with confirmed infection. There are only a few reports concerning the effects of COVID-19 on the course of migraine. This article investigates three female patients with prolonged history of migraine, in which atypical phenomenology and course of migraine attacks were observed during COVID-19 infection.
