Abstract

Hemiplegic migraine is a typical symptom of general migraine. With this disorder, patients at any age can have a series of unilateral paralysis that would outlast a normal headache. It can be classified into three types, such as familiar hemiplegic migraine, sporadic hemiplegic migraine and unclassifiable hemiplegic migraine. Although it is known that normal hemiplegic migraine is associated with the gene on chromosome 19, the accurate cause and effective therapeutics have not been demonstrated yet. When a patient, subjected to this study complained unilateral hemiparesis and sensory disturbance with severe migraine and dysarthria, we thought that the direct cause of this symptoms was the stress. Therefore, we approached this disorder by focusing on the psychological aspect and finally gained a good result with Chilbok-yeum which releases the psychological irritation, so we report it for the better treatment.
