Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by Kenzie60 on Apr 12th, 2003, 1:11pm I always get them from sun glare when I am driving in the late afternoon. I also noticed that if I am in the hot sun I will start to develop shadows. I think sun could be one of my triggers. Roseanne |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by Karla on Apr 12th, 2003, 6:59pm Heat triggers my ch. I find the heat from the sun will make me misserable. I also get ch from oven heat, indoor heat, heater in a car, working outside in garden, etc. |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by Opus on Apr 12th, 2003, 7:13pm I thought that bright sunlight was triggering shadows until I realized they were not shadows but migraines. I guess for me the worst migraines are only 1/4 of the pain of clusters. opus :P |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by Wendy1 on Apr 12th, 2003, 8:19pm Heat will DEFINATELY trigger a h/a for me. It sucks cause I'm a beach lover. I've actually had to go from beach to ER. Even if I'm getting overheated in a room it can trigger, but heat from the sun will trigger. Wendy |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by cluster0557 on Apr 13th, 2003, 2:15am I am an avid boater. Over the last two seasons in the Midwest I could barely get out on the boat due to Sun firing Cluster. For me it had nothing to do with heat just the bright sunshine. Same this winter, I prayed for cloudy days. Worse than Sun for me is high intensity flourescent lights like those found at target stores. Instant cluster in 10 minutes when I went there for Xmas shopping last season. Weird part about it is if I do not have the hemicrania continua HA then Sunlight does not bother. FLourescents always do. Doc's I have seen have no clue. |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by DaveHar on Apr 13th, 2003, 5:44pm The bright light of the sun or any heavy light will trigger me into a migraine. If I do not catch it fast enough I will roll right into a CH from hell. I have to have extra dark shades on all summer and even when we have a bright sunny winter day. Cold is a wonderful thing for me but heat is murder. Dave |

Title: Re: Sun Exposure Post by sailpappy on Apr 19th, 2003, 10:29pm ;D ;D ;D for almost 8 years I lived on the water, I sailed 250-350 days out of the year, I never had the heat or the sun trigger an attack, in fact I reduced down to a managable average, I was tanned so dark that when I had to go to wisconsin to get the Grandkids everyone stared at us like we were from another planet or something, I had to ask someone why and thay said, Your tan, Man, Your tan! However driving with the sun shining through trees in a broken pattern, similar to blinking would trigger them everytime! Never wore sun block or sun Glasses? Pappy http://www.gifs.net/animate/sungulls.gif http://www.gifs.net/animate/sailboat.gif Maybe it was the way you had your neck pressed against the lounge chair or straining your eyes to look at the Babes???? |

Only one problem with the good idea. They won't stay on my face when skiing or tubing or air chairing. My current Sunglasses do the job when I am not doing any of the above but if I skip theplay it just not worth boating And I Can't fish worth a damn when on a Slalom ski ;D |
