Migraine is a prevalent headache ailment while Episodic migraine (EM) is a paroxysmal disorder in which attacks occur at random, frequently in clusters lasting several days or weeks. The World Health Organization (WHO) currently ranks migraine as the 19th cause of years spent with a disability. The diagnosis of EM is based on clinical history and the exclusion of other headache disorders because there are no biological markers for migraine.
