Migraine Mini: Postdromal Fog

Migraine has four stages: prodrome, aura, headache, and postdrome. Postdrome is what I usually call the "migraine hangover." My postdrome symptoms usually include dehydration, muscle tightness (especially in my traps and neck), brain fog, and sleepiness. Sometimes I may have some lingering photosensitivity. Mostly I'm cranky and restless. It's like clawing my way back through my own brain to the land of the living.
