1) Diagnosed with the "complex
migraines." I get the full gambit of migraines, nausea, vomiting, sudden onset,
sometimes with pain and without head pain. I can have with and without aura.
Also I get stroke like symptoms on the bad ones... however I now have "static
vision"... Thank you! Sincerely, Joe.

2) I have an issue with my right
eye. I have had migraines with aura since I was eight years old, and they seem
to come on with extreme stress... since last fall, a bright light appears in my
right eye every once in a while, as well as the aura but without a migraine. It
doesn't hurt, and isn't blinding, but it makes me think that a migraine might be
on its way. This particular twinkling and bright light... Katherine.

3) Have you ever heard of any link
between meningitis and migraine? My husband had very serious meningitis age 20
and a few months later had his first migraine attack. That was 30 years ago and
he is now a chronic sufferer and has tried just about everything, with no
lasting result... Thanking you in advance, Helen.

4) For about a week now, I am
having a moderate to dull pain in my forehead directly in the center. It usually
starts about an hour after I awake and last all day. I have tried everything
from Imitrex to Lortab but it only eases it and starts back. Could this be sinus
related? It is not a migraine, because I have been diagnosed with those and I am
very clear as to what they feel like. This kind of feels like either sinus or
sometimes how it feels before I have a menstrual cycle. But this is lasting
longer. Any insight? Karen.

7) ... I was diagnosed with
migraines at age 3 (now 32) and what I am about to explain has happened ever
since I can remember. Whenever I have a full blown migraine attack and the
attack begins to break (meaning the headache begins to get better) I start to
have to urinate quite a bit and frequently... Many years ago, I was hospitalized
with a very long migraine cycle and the doctor did a spinal tap to see if I was
producing to much cerebral spinal fluid... It has always been in the back of my
mind because when they did that spinal tap in the hospital my headache suddenly
started to get better... Thanks, Becky P.

8) Today my migraine started in
typical fashion, with the last two letters of a word missing followed by a
massive headache. I have had maybe three of these migraines before. However,
this time I was not able to formulate the words I needed to tell my daughter
about a change in basketball ball practice. I couldn’t come up with the word
basketball or names of people I knew on the team and when told the names, I
didn’t recognize them. I was fully aware of the difficulty I was facing and it
was very scary. Nothing like this has ever happened before. I slept for two
hours, the migraine is almost gone and the memory loss is gone. Is this a
typical migraine symptom? Thank you for your help, Judy.

9) I have noticed recently that
carrots seem to trigger my migraines. Please let me know if there is a substance
in the carrots that could be causing this. I have also identified the usual
triggers like caffeine, citrus, cheese, etc, but have noticed the fact that I
get a migraine immediately after eating carrots, and on the days when I don't
eat carrots, I don't get the migraine. I am a goal weight member on Weighless
and enjoy eating vegetables, but would rather no eat those that trigger this
horrible monster. Regards, Cheryl.

10) I'm in Iraq. Four days ago I
was working outside in 113 degree weather. I very rarely get headaches and never
take medication for them when I do. I know I was dehydrated. Four days later I
feel like I still have a hangover, not really a headache, any advice? Chris.
