Overview
Migraine is a clinical diagnosis that does not require any laboratory tests. Laboratory tests can be ordered to rule out any suspected coexistent metabolic problems or to determine the baseline status of the patient before initiation of migraine therapy. When the headache is suggestive of meningitis, lumbar puncture should be done and an appropriate management of meningitis should be initiated.
