Bonkers Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Damn! I had no idea so much research was going on about headaches. It'd be nice to see that list sprinkled with studies using psychedelics to treat a variety of HA types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakinitEZ Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 WOW! This is an excellent summary of relevant research. I happen to have both chronic CH and chronic migraine along with vestibular issues (dizziness and vertigo). I've been led to believe this is rare, but according to a study cited here, it's not uncommon at all. I found several abstracts here that I've been seeking to learn more about. Very happy this research is happening. Thanks for posting! -T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsmacks Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I've been led to believe this is rare, but according to a study cited here, it's not uncommon at all. Not rare for me... A few times a year I get vertigo, blurred spots, traveling numbness on my left arm, followed by 2 hours of migraine headache, which is nothing compared to a CH I get. lol If it is rare, I have them as well. If CH weren't enough... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
