When Migraine Isn't the Whole Story: Understanding Spinal CSF Leak
If you missed the live session, or would like to revisit the discussion, you can now watch the recording of When Migraine Isn't the Whole Story: Understanding Spinal CSF Leak, presented by Dr. Farnaz Amoozegar, MD, MSc, FRCPC, neurologist and headache specialist.
Presented by Migraine Canada in partnership with Spinal CSF Leak Canada, this webinar explores spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, how its symptoms can overlap with or mimic migraine, and why distinguishing between the two can sometimes be challenging.
Watch to learn:
- What a spinal CSF leak is and the symptoms it can cause
- How spinal CSF leak can mimic or coexist with migraine
- Symptoms or changes that may warrant further investigation
- Why diagnosis can be challenging
- Current approaches to diagnosis and treatment
- When it may be appropriate to discuss new or changing symptoms with your healthcare provider
Most people living with migraine do not have a spinal CSF leak. This webinar is intended to help you better understand the differences between these conditions and recognize when symptoms may deserve further attention.
