New research shows that migraine sufferers have an increased risks of cardiovascular problems including heart attacks, stroke, blood clots and an irregular heart rate. A large study conducted by Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark and Stanford University here in the US looked at over a half million people, both migraine sufferers and non-migraine sufferers. For every 1,000 patients, 25 patients with migraine had a heart attack compared with 17 migraine free patients and 45 patients with migraine had a blood clot related stroke compared with 25 migraine free patients. The findings prove that a history of migraine headaches should be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and events.
