I'm prone to migraines and have the same problem. It's a trigger; perhaps it may have something to do with oxygen intake. I'm not sure, but it's possible.
Joy> MB, do you get these headaches from running or other impact exercise? Or do you get them with any exercise that raises your heart beat & respiration rate?
