Want to connect with people dealing with hypnic headaches

Hello @marione2000,
This must be a very unpleasant type of migraine. I'm sorry that you are dealing with the lack of sleep as well as the pain. I found some information from the American Migraine Foundation regarding hypnic headaches. Here is a link to that article
https://americanmigrainefoundation.org/resource-library/hypnic-headache/
As this article mentions other causes for these headaches, I wonder what other tests or scans have been done over the last eight years that you have had these headaches?

Hi Teresa, yes it is very debilitating especially for all these years.
Thanks for this link that takes into consideration other causes. My specialist doctor has never taken into consideration intracranial disorders (because the pain is bilateral) or nocturnal hypertension (considered a consequence of the headache itself). I will try to insist on doing these tests in any case. You have been helpful in giving me these indications, thank you.
