Title: I have a story
Post by Ronny on Sep 28^th, 2005, 12:18pm

First some background info:

I have CH for about 7-8 years now,
before that i had a CH like headache every time i consumed alcohol, like when i drink beer, after one beer my right eye started to hurt. I dont remember how log that has been going on until CH really came around.

Last month my sister came with some very old photos of us, on the oldest Photo, i was only 2 or so.
Now: on every photo (except the 2- year old) my right eye was more closed then my left. Coincidence?

Ronny.

Ronny,
that is interesting. I'm going to visit mum this weekend, so I'll check my baby pics as well. :)

This came up once before. I have always had a "lazy eye" more noticable when I am tired, which happens to also be my CH side. When I was little, long before the CH, my mom could always tell when I was tired because that eye would start to droop. Now, it feels to me like it is about to bulge out of it's socket but if I look in hte mirror it has that same droop. Weird.

Me 2.....

Right eye was always smaller regardless.

Interestingly enough I had a recollection of a massive headache from when I was in 4th grad and they had to bring me to the nurse.

It came on suddenly and disappeared soon after.

Funny how if we think back we can probably recall CH like HA from when we were younger and even before ever having a full blown cycle.

Cockeyed Eric ;) ( Is that a wink or my f-ed up eye?)

HOLY SMOKE!!!

My brother has all of the baby pics but on a whim after reading this I whipped out my photo album of school pics and in both my large kindergarten and 1st grade pics, the right eye is slightly drooped. Same with the rest but not as obvious.

Though after the 6th grade pic, both eyes drooped in my school pics. Not sure why though (nudge nudge wink wink say no more). [smiley=mellow.gif]

Well, I'm a "righty," but my left eye is smaller than my right.
