Q: Anyone Have Pupil Dialation In Only One Eye With Migraines?

I have a co-worker that sometimes has one pupil to dialate and it really freaks her out. She went to a specialist and was told that it was associated with a migraine. The funny thing is that she doesn't even have a headache when it happens! When she told the Dr. That, he said "it was an outlet or route of the migraine". What-everrrrr!!
Anyone ever heard of such a thing? I figured this would be the best place to find an answer!
Thanks,
tammy

Pupil Dilation

Hi tammy, I have the same thing occur when I have a mirgaine, my left pupil dialtes more. I went to the dr and am now being looked at for an mri to rule out anyurism. Please tell your friend, although it may be normal for a headache, which I hope mine is, it may be somthing else, and to go to the dr asap.

I always thought that when your pupils were different sizes, that was a bad sign of a neurological problem.

I'd get a second opinion.
