I would see a cardiologist and a neurologist. I would evaluate your risk factors for dangerous arrhythmias. If you do not have them, I would clear you from cardiac causes. Depending the sequence of symptoms, I would also want to work you up for seizures.
It ends up being just from the migraines (not sure that I have seen this before but I bet a migraine specialist has), medications to promptly treat the migraine or even medications to prevent (propranolol, others) might be helpful.
A migraine specialist will be able to provide ore information on how treat the migraines -- haven't done that for a while.
I hope this helps.
