Title: Supporters Survey! No peeking, Clusterheads
Post by Margi on Jun 25^th, 2003, 9:53am

I'm just curious...

how many of us supporters actually ARE migrainers? I know Ree, Bonnie, Monique and a few others are, but let's take our own survey here! Or sufferers of any other kind of chronic headache (sinus, tension, etc.)? I'm thinkin it's genetic that we're attracted to these doofuses because we've got an inborn empathy for folks with head pain....

Me, I'm a migrainer and chronic sinus peep.

I know I am a CH'er, so maybe I wasn't supposed to peek, but I am a supporter too!!

Yes, Margi, I get migraines, and have since I can remember.

As to what attracts us to these doofuses...I don't know. All I can say is that for me, I think its a simple case of destiny. I know this has nothing to do with your survey...but I was just curious as to whether you other married women found or still find your husbands to be THE most adorable, most beautiful, most lovely people you have ever met in your entire lives or have I just been out in the Texas sun too much? I am just plain giddy. Sorry...butting out now.

I get headaches but I don't exactly know what they're from. Ree thinks they're migraines but my doctor doesn't. He doesn't know either. Duh.
Anyway that's that.

Margi I don't get regular migraines.Most of my headaches come from neck injury (I got after meeting Billy). I had mennagitis (sp?)sept 2001 and get bad headahes couple times a month since.so I can honestly say I started getting headaches after hubby and kids :)

First of all, Vig - if you are supporterless, please feel free to vent here all you want. There are lots of us supporters here, whose sufferers are out of cycle. We've got all this supporting energy that has to go SOMEWHERE!!

And, Georgia? ~~get in the shade, honey~~ ::) er...um...enjoy that Texas sunshine. *sigh* young love....ain't it grand?

Yup, I get migraines regularly - once a month. But....I find that when I am doing regular strenous exercise (running every morning) I don't get them. What is that about?? Hard to keep up the running in the winter here though.

OK, now down to the survey...........

I have never (other than my other former clusters) had a headache problem, just the rare who knows-what headache.
