Rendi, I'm so sorry about your headaches...but I'm thrilled to hear you had a clean brain scan.

I did just hear on the news the other night that this time of year is one of the biggest for headaches due to allergies and weather changes. Especially right now when it's so dry. It had been so hot and humid, and now it's dried out and getting cold at night. I know I've been having lots of headaches too and plan on a brain MRI. But I'm hoping its just the change of season like I heard on the news. Now that you are have a clean scan...lets hope that's one step to your headaches disappearing. Hang in there.
