I was wondering what usually triggers your migraine headaches or the headaches of your child, because Isabel had a really nasty one last night. I'm trying to pin point what causes these.

Hi Lori!

My supervisor has SWS and I asked him if he has been able to pin point the causes of his headaches. He said it was stress at first, but he said his headaches now seem to come after a seizure. He said he has seizures in his sleep and in the morning his head is pounding. Also, I have noticed that if he has headaches for a couple days in a row, he ends up having a seizure. Is Isabel having seizures?

Just a thought for today:
OBSTACLES ARE THOSE FRIGHTFUL THINGS YOU SEE WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR EYES OFF YOUR GOALS.

Take care Lori! Shan

No, she hasn't had any seizures for quite some time now.

I am wondering if it's when she has stress? Hmmm.....

Lori:

It seems that headaches/migraines are often a common occurance with SWS. It might be a good idea to talk with her neuro about this, especially if she has them often.

Totally unrelated to SWS, but I had stress-related migraines myself.
