Same in meaning?

I read this one on the webpage:

The dilation of blood vessels doesn't seem to have anything do with migraine.

Can I say this instead as:

The dilation of blood vessels doesn't seem to have a relation with migraine?

migraine is not correct. It should be "migraine headaches" or "migraines."

It appears to be OK to use "migraine" (in the singular) as a mass noun:
