Your Health: Migraines can come with 'fellow travelers' (Topix)
 
If you suffer from migraine headaches, you suffer enough. These aren't just headaches: They are life-disrupting events that can send you to bed for hours or days at a time, unable to tolerate light, sound, odors or human contact.

I copied this over from our News Headlines Forum because it mentions MS, so I wondered if others might be interested in reading it. In the article it mentions different consequences of migraine headaches, and MS was just one of them.

Women with migraine were 47% more likely to develop MS than those without the headaches in one study....
I guess this gives us one more avenue to explore.

Definitely. Life-long migrainer here.

I'm beginning to wonder if CCSVI + migraine + MS all tie in together in my case... my MS, other than constant double vision, has been 100% sensory. Migraines when I was very young, to Trigeminal Neuralgia attacks in my mid-20s, to dx'ed at 31 with MS. Hrm!

Still getting migraines.. though I know my own personal triggers and avoid those.

Migraines since puberty!

Interesting! Yup -- migraines began in 6th or 7th grade and continued into adulthood. Optic neuritis at 32 and finally diagnosed with MS at 46....????
