According to recent data, American doctors routinely misdiagnose
migraines as "sinus headaches"-as if pressure from clogged
sinuses is causing the pain. Then they prescribe antibiotics, which do
nothing, notes Mark Green, director of the Colombia University
<http://www.columbia.edu>   Headache Center in New York City.
"Medically," he says.



Migraines are an inherited form of recurring headaches, in some cases
accompanied by auras: perceived noises or flashing lights. Patients who
go untreated for too long may incur structural changes in their brains,
so they should insist on proper therapy, which may involve drugs similar
to those used by epileptics.


Some confusion in diagnosis occurs because neurons in the brain stem can
activate the sinuses during a migraine, causing them to secrete a clear
fluid. Yet this discharge differs from the cloudy fluid produced by
sinus infection. Taking unneeded antibiotic-resistant strains to
flourish. Green advises doctors to consider migraines more seriously and
to look for eye tearing and clear nasal secretions as symptoms.
