Title: Sneezing
Post by beachmusic on Feb 27^th, 2008, 3:18pm

I probably should move to a different forum and out of getting to know you but does anyone else here ever sneeze right before being hit? That seems to be becoming a pattern for me and now I have started sneezing during the attack as well. I wonder if this could be an aura or sinus related? Just wondered if there is anyone else out there that has experienced this.

Does sneezing cause CH? Does CH cause sneezing or do they both result from the same thing? Dunno, but I'll never be convinced they're not related.

I sneeze too!!!
I'm so excited to find someone else who sneezes :)

I usually sneeze before and/or during an attack when I have the drippy nose and watery eye. Sometimes I will sneeze a lot the 24 hours before...kind of a warning of what's to come. When I start sneezing everyone in my house runs for cover..lol!

I asked my HA doc about this and sneezing can be neurologically based. I also sneeze when i look at the sun and it's too bright(the name for this escapes me at the moment). My eyes get all teary and I sneeze.

I get Migraines and CH and some others,most of the time the sneezing is a pre cluster.

I sneeze (it hurts).

Just the other day I was reviewing old posts from '05 and saw a thread about burning nostrils (well, on one side)...I certainly can relate to that also.

Weirdly enough, it's a genetic condition. Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst Syndrome--otherwise known as ADCHOO. I kid you not.

I often sneeze as an attack is ending. It ain't pretty.

Best,

Ive sneezed whilst having an attack frequently and that usually means for me it is fading away!! ;)

On a hard hit, I'm sneezin and blowin my nose constantly. I'll easily soak a couple hankies in an hour. Yuk. The nose is usually the first place I notice when a hit is coming.

I didnt observe my husband sneezing more during a hit although he blew his nose a lot because it would run and get blocked at the same time.

I have noticed him yawning repeatedly before a hit was coming though.

yawning is also a good sign for me!!!
