Do vascular problems in your leg have an impact on migraene headaches?

---

I have severe Migraene hadaches for several days in the row. Now, I also have vascular problems in my left leg. Is there an research study of the these two symptoms which tricker the other?
This is the BEST Headache information.

Make the connection!

Being a nurse with over 25 years experience, I have seen a lot of people with various illnesses. Many allergic reaction are indeed caused from foods HOWEVER...many more are caused from chemicals and fragranced products as well as VOC's in homes, schools and workplace.

This is a growing problem and many people are not even aware that it exists as more and more chemicals are being introduced and used on a daily basis. Many people believe that because something smells good and it is on a store shelf that it is tested, approved and safe for use.
Think again !

We are now seeing more and more children and adults with Chronic Headaches, Sinusitis, Migraines, Chronic Sinus Infections, Asthma, Allergies, Hives, Eczema, sinus / respiratory illnesses and Hormone related disorders. I can not emphasize how important it is to educate yourself about MULTIPLE CHEMICAL SENSITIVITY (MCS) and the harm you may be doing to your health by using chemicals and fragranced products.

If you or a loved one has symptoms of or suffers from Asthma, Allergies, Autism, chronic headaches, reproductive problems, Migraines, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Lupus or Fibromyalgia, you need to read further and learn about the signs and symptoms of MCS - Multiple Chemical Sensitivity.

Most doctors will not inform you about this because patients as a whole like to walk out of a doctors office with a prescription for some magical medicine and they do not want to be told that their expensive new perfume or newly installed carpet may be the culprit. So, the doctor will give you medications and many of these meds either do not work or cause other health problems.

Chemicals and fragranced products are often the root of many disorders and illnesses when it comes to your health. Many of the below mentioned items are common triggers to sinus, asthma, itching, headaches, Migraines and allergy problems amongst other health issues. Get rid of them and your immune and respiratory system will thank you and you will breathe easier.

And, it is not only personal body or cleaning products causing havoc on your health….many people become ill after wearing brand new clothing, dry-cleaned clothes, installing new carpet, painting, buying a new mattress or after home renovations because of the Flame Retardants, Antimony, Benzenes, Formaldehydes, etc. used in these products. So the answer is NO, you are not imagining that 2 weeks after your home, office or classroom got renovated you started to become ill, get dizzy or have headaches. This is happening more and more these days and adults as well as children are becoming sicker and sicker.

Unfortunately, too many doctors compound the problem by prescribing chemical medications to try to alleviate the symptoms of an already chemical overloaded body and they rarely tell the patient to eliminate the chemical offenders. How many times have I seen people in the grocery store with Bounce, Glade Plug-Ins and Febreeze in their shopping cart along with a bottle of Benadryl , Migraine Excedrin and a box of Allergy Tablets ? Why don't they make the connection?

Keep in mind that your skin is the largest organ of your body and what you put on your skin gets absorbed into your body. Then ... well... then it has to be filtered by your organs which are already working real hard.

BIG NO-NO's ---- I would SERIOUSLY recommend removing all of the below from your living / working area.

No Bounce or dryer sheets - these are VERY toxic
No Febreeze - your pets will even thank you for this
No Glade Plug-ins - VERY toxic
No Scented candles
No Scented Dish Detergents
No Fragranced Products on Body, Hair or Clothing
No Smoke
No Newspapers and Magazines - The ink is a huge irritant.
No Dander
No Sprays
No Sharpies (marker pens)
New Cartpeting, mattresses, paint, contain toxins that can trigger severe respiratory disorders as well as headaches and Asthma flare-ups.
And remember, it is NOT the smell it is the Chemicals that make up the smell. So, even if something is "Fragrance Free" these products often mask the smell with another chemical ! There are plenty of safe healthy products out there that work well and do not have added chemical fragrances.

More and more workplaces & schools are implementing Fragrance Free policies and creating "Fragrance Free Zones"… why do you think this is? Make the connection, your lungs , immune system and your general health will thank you.  (+ info)

What does it mean when something may be vascular?

---

I have been having bad headaches on the right side, starting in my eye and in my temples, I have a dull pain daily (usually when im working out or in high stress situations) and also flares up around dinner time. Sometimes I do feel a bit dizzy, but nothing that last long or is horrible. My chiropractor told me to see my primary physican and get a blood test to test if it is vascular? What does that mean?
Vascular has to do with blood or the network of blood vessels, veins, arteries, etc. Some headaches can be of vascular origin and I think your chiropractor wants to rule out anything such as high blood pressure, malformations of the blood vessels in the brain (which could rupture, such as an aneurysm or bulging of vessel) or things of that nature. This is beyond the scope of practice of a chiropractor, so that is why you should see your primary physician. I'm not sure what exactly he means by "blood test", because simple lab work is not going to reveal any vascular problems. But you might need a cat scan or MRI and you just need to be evaluated by your physician before the chiro can proceed.

Edit: I just read Douglas B's answer and I disagree with him saying "all headaches begin with the neck muscle". That is an incorrect statement. Yes, MANY headaches began in the muscles and that is a MUSCULAR headache. However, the more serious headaches can be vascular or caused by aneurysm or tumors. That must be ruled out.  (+ info)

Over the past month I have had vision loss, peripheral vision loss and severe headaches?

---

I also have an almost constant left eye twitching. I also have been woken up with severe sharp stabbing leg pain. MRI shows and arachnoid cyst. I have fallen down stairs, am running into walls and have memory loss. HELP! I was just in the hospital for 3 days and told I might have vascular headaches or migraines and now was told that a week of constant severe headaches is probably NOT a migraine.
Did they check for glaucoma?  (+ info)

How do vasoconstrictors relieve a vascular headache?

---

A vascular headache is a headache where blood vessel swelling or disturbance causes the pain.

Vasoconstrictors are supposed to help, but I'm not sure why or how.
They narrow the blood vessels, slowing the blood flow.  (+ info)

What is the cause of Migraine headaches?

---

What is primary cause? Is it vascular? Would Cayenne help?

jclbiz
There may be different causes for different people but dehydration is a cause for some people.

Cayenne is good for circulation and for high blood pressure but if you are dehydrated and that is the cause then you need to drink more plain water, possibly with a bit of sea salt added.  (+ info)

How much schooling do you need to become a Cardio Vascular Surgeon?

---

I'm thinking about either becoming a Physician Assistant or a Cardio Vascular surgeon, but I'm unsure on how much schooling you need to become a surgeon. I know you have to go to Pre Med School, then Medical school but is there anymore schooling after that?
You'll need a bachelors degree (college, 2-4 years). Then medical school (4 years), then residency. You'll have a 1 year internship in general surgery, then 4-5 more years in CT (cardiothoracic) surgery, depending on how specialized you want. The part after med school is residency, and you do get paid for it.

Physician's assistant is a lot less school, but CT surgeons make 5-7 times the amount of money.

Best of luck.  (+ info)

Will Cardio vascular exercise help out with my weight lifting gains?

---

I am light and am trying to gain weight. So I have not ran in awhile. However I think that I will see strength gains in the weight room by running. What do you think? Will better cardio vascular conditioning make me stronger in the weight room? Can I still gain weight if I run?
I just spend 10 minutes answering this question you asked a few minutes ago..please go read that answer, and be patient, people will get to your question..  (+ info)

What's better for a vascular headache? Vasoconstrictors or vasodilators?

---

A vascular headache is a headache where blood vessel swelling or disturbance causes the pain.

Therefore my question is, is it better to use a vasoconstrictor or a vasodilator to relieve the pain? (Wikipedia suggests a number of vasoconstrictors)
vasoconstrictors
this is why you put ice bags on your head  (+ info)
