http://bit.ly/migraineinfo--After much speculation regarding reporter Serene Branson's on-air "neurological event" during live coverage of the Grammy's on Feb. 13, experts have finally explained what may have caused her sudden language dysfunction.

Physicians at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center concluded that Branson experienced a "complex migraine" or "migraine aura." However, this diagnosis has opened the door to even more questions since language dysfunction as severe as what Branson experienced is not a common symptom of most migraines.

Dr. Frederick Freitag, medical director of the Comprehensive Headache Center at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas, explains this type of diagnosis and sheds some light on what a "complex migraine" actually is.

    I'm glad you had luck with him. I was not as fortunate, but I did find a wonderful neurologist. Migraines are just the worst. Take care.

  • @robincassaday666 I would have to disagree with you. I was a patient of Dr. Freitag back when he work in Chicago and he was by far the best headache doctor I have seen, and I have seen my fair share. I give him credit for solving my headache problems. Not only is he a good doctor, he conducts far more research in the headache and migraine field than other doctors and researchers in the field.

  • Maybe a great video but go see him and he's terrible.

  • Great video, thanks for bringing your expertise and dedication to Dallas/Fort Worth.
