That's good to know.

Yesterday I figured out that the occasional attacks of mild vertigo that I've been experiencing for, oh, several years now...are actually migraine precursors. I just hadn't put two and two together before. Which is kind of silly, considering that as a child, severe vertigo was the big red flag for my migraines. (They changed around early adolescence and then disappeared for a while, then came back in my 20's with a different symptomatology. A couple of years ago they started changing again. Whee!)

Anyway, just noting it for posterity so that I don't ever get anxious about "unexplained" dizzy spells again.

Huh. Last time I talked to a doctor, they said they couldn't give me anything for the vertigo. But a) I have no associated nausea, and b) this was many many years ago, and possibly the same doctor who was giving me an ergotamine without warning about rebound.
