headaches

Post by admin »

This may be a strange question, but I was wondering if migraines or headaches seem to be more prevalent among bpi adults?

Do many of you have them or not?

Thanks.

I am a 31 year old with LOBI, and I do get headaches a lot with occasional migraines. However, my father gets them too so for me I think it might be a hereditary condition, and not relating to the LOBI but who knows-good question.

I get what they call ocular migraines. Weird colored flashy zig-zags that go around in a circle around my eyes and sometimes double vision. I've had them 6 or 7 years. Sometimes headches with them,but not always.

I as well get migranes. I get them every week to two weeks. When I talked to Dr. Nath about doing my surgery he said that Erb's Palsy has nothing to do with the migranes. My chiropracter agrees and said they are caused by something else. I actually still have the e-mail Dr. Nath sent me back if you would like to read it.
