Abstract: Using quantitative sensory testing (QST), we found that many migraineurs seeking secondary and tertiary care exhibit cutaneous allodynia whenever they undergo a migraine attack, but not interictally (i.e. between attacks). When such patients were questionned interictally in the clinic about symptoms of skin sensitivity in past attacks, 76% of them were 'correctly' classified either as allodynic (>or=1 symptom) or non-allodynic (zero symptoms) in line with the QST analysis. In this study, patients were classifi… Show more

“…This decreased skin sensitivity, in a discrete proportion of these patients (67%), extended to the other side of the head and/or the forearms [32]. Allodynia was also tested by using ad hoc questionnaires to detect cutaneous allodynia in episodic migraine patients [33,34] and was confirmed in 40% to 75% of CM patients [35,36]. In the latter, allodynia was correlated to the duration of illness as well as frequency of migraine attacks and was most common in the cephalic and cervical areas, but was also found in cervical dermatomes.…”

“…The distributions of the study group reflected those in population-based studies (1,5,21). The prevalence of allodynia was reported to be 63.2% by Lipton, and it has ranged between 50% and 80% in other studies (4,5,15,16,17,22).…”

“…The items Q3 and Q5 were occasionally answered positively and did not affect the types of patients who could be excluded from the Turkish version of the checklist. Similarly, Askhenazi et al (16) reported that the shaving-your-face item does not have an additive effect in terms of identifying allodynic patients. Lipton et al…”
