Sažetak
Current literature suggests patients with bipolar disorder are at increased risk of developing migraine compared with the
general population and patients with other affective disorders. This study examined whether this finding was evident in the outpatient
department of a regional psychiatric hospital. Using a patient database (n=1083), records were screened for bipolar disorder
(n=169) or self-report of migraine (n=46). 8 cases of co-morbid migraine and bipolar disorder were revealed (4.7% prevalence).
This and the general prevalence of migraine (4.2%) are substantially lower than previously reported. Reasons for and implications
of this finding are discussed.
