It is interesting that you ask this question because I was going to ask it myself. I was put on tablets for high blood pressure about 18 months ago and my blood pressure has come down. Since going on the tablets I have not had a migraine. Coincidence?

Wow,that is so interesting.

Finally got hubby to go doc's today for his migraines. They checked his b.p. 210/110. !!!!!

Will keep you posted. Xx

That is very high. Mine was about the same. It is now about 135/70. I monitored it and always just after a migraine it was even higher, dangerously high in fact. I don't know however whether it was cause or effect. We know that migraine is something to do with arteries in the head so it seems logical for there to be a connection.
