This is the first time for me to read about the two being connected but I have had migraines since I was a child. It was not uncommon for me to be in bed days at a time with a headache, especially after I started getting my period. I still get migraines today but thanks to modern medicine, I know longer have to lay and suffer, feeling like I was missing out on life around me.

Thanks for posting this article. My ADHD adult son has had migraines all his life. They are frequent and debilitating, and his adhd med exacerbates the problem. It is so bad now that he can't work and has been unemployed for over a year.
