It passed, but I think, its more of less related to the ASD/PDD/Bipolar thing. I am trying to learn, through relaxation technique, and also CBT, how to avoid some of that. Anyway- interesting all around! I had a Master Piano teacher, who, had terrible Migraines- incredably bad, and through eating a vegitarian diet, and exercise, vitamens, and Brewers Yeast Flakes, he has managed to stave them off. So, I belive, diet, and prevention, can slow down some of it. Wolf

I'm not sure why, but I've noticed a sharp decrease in the number of migraines I've suffered since I became quasi-menopausal. I still get the occasional headache, but they rarely progress into a full blown migraine now. I consider this a true blessing because it used to be that if I got even the slightest headache, I had to treat it very quickly. Otherwise it would automaticly become a migraine with the light sensitivity, pounding pain around my left eye and at the back of my head, dizziness, extreme sensitivity to strong odors, and sometimes even vomiting. Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart. ~ Corrie Ten Boom

I'd had a hystorectomy completed in two parts, with the last being at age 28. And I still could get a migraine clear up until our youngest was in college years. The one that sent me to the ER in Minnesota when we'd gone up to watch one of his BB games was the last one I ever remember having though. Thank God. We both can consider ourselves blessed not to suffer these wretched things anymore. I get headaches, but not these. Poor Sharon has them continuously, as does her daughter Caitlin. So remember them when you remember the awful pain we once endured.
