LOL angela.   Grin

I'm Right handed, Right CH sided, Right eye dominant, and I'm always Right.  ya right.   Smiley

To check for your dominant eye look at a small object across the room (about 10-20 feet away).  
Form a triangle with your hands by overlaping your thumbs at the knuckles and crossing your fingers over the knuckles of your index fingers.
Hold that triangle at arms length in front of you and with both eyes open look at the object through that triangle, close one eye at a time.
You should notice that one eye will be able to see the object and the other one won't see the object through the triangle.
Your dominant eye is the one that sees the object.

OR

You will usually unconsciously choose your dominant eye when peering through a telescope or camera viewfinder.

Have fun  Cool

The exact cause of cluster headaches is unknown, but abnormalities in the hypothalamus likely play a role. Studies have detected increased activity in the hypothalamus during the course of a CH attack

Ah ha! 

I got it.  Thanks DragonSlayer.  I was cracking myself up because I can not wink my right eye.  And I thought how in the hell am I gonna look only through my left eye.  I decided to make a "OK" sign with my left hand and peer through the "O", using my right hand to cover my right eye.  It worked, just fine Wink.  I am very right eye dominant, right handed, and left headed.

Has anyone been keeping tabs on this post and come up with some numbers?  Just curious.

I saw a few lefthead/righthanders out there.

I have looked over the posts and it seems totally random nothing to do with handed or eye dominant it is more likly to do with something chemical or the abnormal grey matter i have read about in someones thread

The small sampling thus far is about as evenly mixed as it's possible to get!

R hand, head: 9
L hand, head: 2

R hand, L head: 8
L hand, R head: 2 (of which one was forced L hand-R)

Naturally, I could be completely wrong as I am generally unable to count higher than the fingers on one hand. Either my right or my left. Which I'm continually mixing up.

Some years ago, I actually forgot how to do long division.

OK, I just had to get in here with this one (even though it is often brought up)   ...

I am Right handed, predominantly Left headed, Right eye ...

AND my right testicle hangs lower than my left ...  Does that enter into the equation?

I am right handed, although I golf and play hockey left handed.

My attacks in my first year and a half were left-headed. For the last year and a half they have been right-headed.

Never in my life have I thought about my dominant eye! I think I'm right eye dominant as well.

I am absolutely unable to raise a sarcastic eyebrow on the right.


David, Chuck and all you other balldebaters: I'm a left-testy and wonder if the massive amount of weight on that side is compensated by being clusterheaded on the right side.

Er, uh, don't quite know what to say to that, Pascal. Always been a matched set guy, m'self. Have you considered a prosthesis for the neglected right soldier?

I thought I'd throw in my two cents.  Just for the record...

Right hand, left headed, dominant right eye.

Oh, and that triangle thing was kind of freaky.

Right handed, left headed. Although I am getting a very strange yet familiar feeling just behind my right eye and in my neck at the moment. Kinda scary really. Oh, and my right big toe is dominant as well.
