When I'm having a migraine I regularly find myself stammering, stuttering, and even mispronouncing words. I also start speaking and completely lose my trail of thought mid-sentence. It is just another lovely migraine side effect. One that leaves me feeling like an idiot.
I had to read off of a document at a work meeting recently while I was having a migraine. I was focused on reading everything word for word and when I finished I thought I had pulled it off flawlessly. The guy sitting next to me started laughing and let me know I'd read something in the document wrong. I'm not even sure what I said, but I was quite embarrassed. It could be worse though.
