Starting from the head down

I've suffered with migraines since the age of 9 regularly and a few weeks after the birth of my daughter in 2000 was diagnosed with a pseudo tumour cerebri causing 24/7 head (torture) for 9 months until after every treatment known to man and MRI's ended in a 8 month course of steiroids which was a godsend. It has since recurred a further 4 times but at least I know what to expect with pain and sight loss. But hey ho. And now I have the wonder that is the lovely Cluster Headaches. My Neuro said once you are plagued with head problems you are stuck with them and they tend to be hereditary. My daughter has suffered with chronic daily headache syndrome for the last 6 years and I'm praying she does not end up like me. As well as 3 slipped discs. Diabeties. Asthma. Lupus. Urticaria. And a couple of others it's a good job I can laugh still. Lol.
