migraine sufferers

(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology) When people feel the onset of a migraine headache, they may head to a dark, quiet room to rest.

This instinct may be sound: A new study suggests that even without the headache, migraine sufferers may process visual cues better in an environment with few visual distractions.

(University Hospitals Case Medical Center) In newly released research, 79 migraine sufferers were followed for at least five years after having undergone detection of migraine "trigger sites" and surgery.

New data find promising outcomes for treating trigger sites surgically for migraine headaches resulting in elimination of pain for those afflicted with the condition.

(Thomas Jefferson University) Migraine sufferers, beware. You may be more prone to an alcohol-induced headache after a night of drinking, according to researchers from the Jefferson Headache Center.

The research will be presented at Neuroscience 2009, the Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, in Chicago.
