No, but someone I know gets them.

Unfortunantly migraines run in my family. My maternal great-great grandma, & my great grandma used to have really bad migraines. The curse skipped my grandma, was passed on to my mom and myself, plus my brothers daughter too. I hope my sisters' daughter doesn't get them. For my bros' daughter, she was struck with the migraine curse from both her mom AND dads' sides.

I got my first migraine at 11, and had my most recent one 5 days ago. I don't get them as often as some sufferers do, but this month I've had 2 migraines, each lasting 3 days. That's one reason I don't like summer, I'm far more prone to migraines in the summer heat than any other time of year. Oh well...que sera sera!

Yeah, that's not much of an option when you get them 3 times or more a week. None of the preventives help, so i told the neurologist I would deal with it myself. They were not happy with my medical history, but it's not like they were doing anything but harming me. They had me on 13 meds at one time. I was like no. I'm too young for that.
