Hi Shelli,
That's interesting...it never occured to me that I could be controlling when I get the headaches. I *am* under alot of stress, but really, what's new about that? :-) Although maybe I'm surpassing some kind of threshold. I don't know, just thinking aloud. I'll bring it up to my pdoc this week.
No, my family and I were nowhere near the pentagon today. Worse, my husband works in NY. He was fine though, in fact he called me to turn on the tv this morning and keep him and his coworkers updated; even though they were there, they weren't able to get much info. I did panic, however, when a friend who works for the government told me that there was a hyjacked jet circling Dulles. (We're in Loudoun Co.) I was terrified it would crash land into one of my daughter's schools. You wouldn't believe all the traffic driving west (away from DC)! Many of my neighbors work at the pentagon, haven't heard anything bad yet, thank god. This was a day none of us is likely to forget for a long time.
Thanks for the response.
Marie

> A friend of mine got severe migraines several times a month, always on Friday night or Saturday morning. She worked full time. I don't know how much you are working, but she fit the pattern of dealing with a lot of stress at work and somehow after all that stress, when she was able to let go--that was when she got her migraines. Almost like her body knew it could not fall apart during the work week. I think it's curious that you have never had a migraine on a workday and wonder if the preceding day was stressful for you. Just wondering if the timing of your headaches is other than purely coincidental
