I am seriously wondering about a link between epilepsy and my ch. I had epilepsy all my life then 6 years ago it stopped. I have seen lots of similarities between the two. My seizures were more strong on the right side. Ch on right side. I have read posts from people saying lights, soap detergent isles in stores, purfumes, sleep patterns, etc. trigger CH well it triggered my seizures. Many siezure meds are used to help CH. For me it seems all to coincidental. Now I understand not everyone has epilepsy or a history of seizures but for me I am wondering if it is a link. Maybe there are many different things that can cause CH to start and we should be looking for a list of variables and not a common denominator. I would be interested in finding out what magazine that was in. If you ever figure it out please email me and let me know. I have had so many relatives and friends say that this sounds just like my epilepsy used to. Just a thought.
1 of many and never alone,
Karla
