migraine sufferer

Person with debilitating headaches

A migraine sufferer is someone who experiences migraines—severe, often debilitating headaches typically accompanied by nausea, light sensitivity, and visual disturbances.

The term emphasizes the chronic nature of the condition: a migraine sufferer isn't someone with a one-time headache but a person who contends with recurring episodes.

As a longtime migraine sufferer, she keeps medication in every bag she owns.
