Cluster headaches with tick's? (Read 1577 times)

MichaelB CH.com Newbie Offline I Love CH.com! Posts: 3	Cluster headaches with tick's? Nov 8^th, 2013 at 1:45pm Hi all I get ticks now just random ones like smash a cup in to a table or trying to type I'll bash on the keyboard. Then I have the headaches and the ticks become like shaking with the ticks of the arm,legs or head. Anyone experience anything like that?

I've seen a few people mention that they get something called restless legs syndrome (Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!! You need to

This is something you need to discuss with your doctor to get a definitive diagnosis and the appropriate treatment. There are many other possible causes of your symptoms.

I would definately see a doctor about this, it could be a lot of different things.
Are you having tics when not in a CH cycle ?
My first thought was if it is not the CH itself, it could be meds or epilepsy.
Having a son with severe epilepsy, I have seen so many different types of seizures you would not believe it. Short tics is one of them.
I am not saying your tics is epilepsy, but see a doctor is good advice anyway.

Take care, and CH free days to you.

D3 rocks !!!
