on the flip side...

Since I typically get my attacks on the right side, I was wondering about this. Today, I'm feeling fine and sitting at work just putzing along, when, out of nowhere, the effer comes and gets me right behind my left eye. My question is... how common - or uncommon - is it for pain to flip sides? It doesn't happen often for me - maybe once a month, if that - and it's quite rare I would think.

My first 3 weeks (shadows only) were only on left. Then when the big boys came, they moved over to the right and stayed there.

Hi Maggie,
Once about three years ago I started a new preventive med (depakote) and the next three or four headaches hit on the opposite (left) side! Then they went back to normal (right) side at lower intensity and have stayed there ever since.
One flip-flop in about 20 years of episodes....
PFD's to ya!

The beast likes to flip that egg as often as he can with me. I just wish he'd learn the concept of over easy.
