I wrote the orignal question. I get them both before going to sleep and I wake up sometimes in the middle of the night and in the morning from a headache.
The main reason I lay down is so that if I pass out from the headache I do not get any other injuries as I fall. It also gives me alone time to keep me from getting upset with my wife while I am in so much pain.
I am not sure about the hypothalamus thing. No doctor has ever mentioned that, even the headache specialist never mentioned it. But it is definately something I am going to look into next time I see a doctor. Thanks for the great idea. May not be what causes it, but it may be related and help the doctor find the cause.
thanks again,
Mike
