Hi, I subscribe to read your SS because I have a daughter who has migraines. When I was younger, I did too. Never figured out why. I finally thought it was hormonal. I do think my daughters are as well. (she doesn't want to know why,,,,sheeeesh)

The difference in mine vs hers, mine sort of dissipated in my mid 30's. Hers have not gone and she is 44. I will say she has less of them and less lasting of them.

I mostly subscribe to all kinds of SS because I hunger for information and knowledge. It is also like a puzzle to me. Some stuff is not real, as I figure out on my own. In the cooler months SS is my 'newspaper read'. I do not watch much TV and am very auditory. Not so much visual.

I appreciate reading your knowledge and that you share. I like to share as well.

Thank you for being here for us.

I'm 71.

I don't get migraines, but have suffered for 40 years from "cluster headaches".

I don't get them every year, but once I do, they last about 8 weeks.

Several/day.

Excruciating pain, but over in 30 minutes.

My early fix was to "get cold", to the point of shivering... headache would be gone.

I've had a prescription for Rizatriptan, which helps.

Haven't had any for over 18 months now...
