I am researching this as everything I am reading sends up big red smoke signals yes this is you. I see my GP on Monday plan taking him what I have found regarding this to see what he knows about it.
What it is is its a rare disease that the symptoms are severe headaches everyday. One side of your face is usually affected and the eye or face droops or is teary. Ummm yea. They recommend a med that is supposed to have a good success rate so I'm hoping he will read up on it and find out if I have it or if its just an allergy to a food. My uncle is allergic to wheat and if he eats a wheat based product he gets headaches so that is another thing to test out. Something has got to be done I'm losing to much of my life do to these headaches. Jbug

Well I saw my GP yesterday and we talked about it and he agreed to try me on the med that treats this. So far so good the only side effect is an upset tummy so I think I will try to eat a little bit more when I take the med not just a glass of milk or a piece of toast. Maybe a cup of yogurt or something along those lines but he gave me some anti-nausea meds to take if the nausea did happen. But on the upside it helps somewhat. I can tell when it starting to wear off because the headache comes back and I take a BC Powder until it is time to take the next dose of the med. He told me it would take about 2 weeks for the med to totally take effect so I'm hopeful. If in a month I'm still not better I will ask to go to an allergist and have allergy tests run to rule out an allergy to something in my environment.
