Sexual Orientation?

Does anyone know of any studies that may link sexual orientation to CH?  Curious as I'm gay and have had episodic CH since a teenager (that's for over 40 years).  BTW, episodes last 8 wks, with 2-3 years remission.  Verapamil and predisone as preventative, cafergot  hot tea and topical ice as needed as treatment works pretty well for me.  I really feel for those who have not found successful treatment.

No, I don't know of any studies that address that.
 
It would surprise me to discover that there was any relationship, though.  The people here are pretty much across the board as far as sexual orientation goes--gay, straight, bi.....there's even a fellow who seems to have a latex fetish, and a taste for circus midgets.   Wink
 
Best,

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

We tend to have higher sex drives than normal people.  As far as orientation goes.......... dunno about that one.

Ask anyone on the board... most of us have gone to sleep after dancing with the beast... have woken up to a beast ... I'd say we were tilting toward bestiality if anything.

  Nope, seems to me that it's mostly Heterosexual folks that get CH.  And then there is the one guy who loves Chinese Circus Midgets and Latex. But I'm no expert.

If Homoerotecism counts, I'm more interested in masterbation after a hit, because I know how to do it right....
 
Seriously, though, the answer is NO.  Genetically, studies have shown some correspondence for some people to parents with clusters OR Migraines, and have shown that clusters are due to overgrowth of grey matter in an area of the hypothalmus.  I've never seen a single study relating them to sexual orientation.
 
However, I did just read that eating and drinking soy products was making all if our kids gay.  Maybe that causes both?

P.S. - Potter is the only gay clusterhead I know of so far on the forums.  Maybe if there are others, we should have a special thread for announcing it?

Oh there are more than one.  I personally, think the percentage is pretty high.  Not complaining.  Doesn't mean nothin'.  I don't care what folks do as long as it makes 'em happy and nobody's gettin' hurt.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.
