Re: [adie_syndrome] how is everything?

Erin,
    It basically says that the syndrome itself  does not warrent that you get headaches. But rather because the syndrome produces changes in vision, this may cause headaches.
    I myself was never prone to getting headaches, however, since the adie's, I get them slightly more often than before.  So far they are not in the migrane catagory.  I'm curious if you already wear glasses, or at least not before acquiring adie's?  I try to go once a year for a perscription check or sooner if I notice a change in vision.  So far that and a good pair of sunglasses are all I have had to do, and still cope with some near vision difficulty.

Subject: RE: [adie_syndrome] how is everything?

Hi all,
 
I have joined the group and have been watching the mails. I was interested in the number of people who highlight the fact that they get headaches. I do also - more and more. I also went back to the consultant who said that "headaches are not associated with Adies" then I was told that they were PROBABLY migraine. This isn't really good enough treatment ( in my opinion).
 
What has raised my attention is how many of us get headaches - perhaps someone should look to verify the throw away comment that there is no association !!!!
 
PS. Do any of you have joint problems?
 
Regards
