For years when I get 'fibro headaches,' I later seem to get a weak feeling in the legs.  Does anyone else, and do you know what it is?  Maybe something like adrenaline or something else moving though the body?  Thanks for any help.

My SIL gets those. Her doctor says it's a type of migraine.

Thanks for the reply, couchtater. Glad to know I'm not the only one with that type of headache. They are always a little 'creepy' to me, since they feel like they're taking over not just my head, but other areas as well.

She has to take migraine meds to help it.

I get what they call abdominal migraines.....idk?....after one of these attacks leave me week. the weekness depends on the severity of migraine.I might need help to a chair and shortly can move n go sloe. It it is severe, I need help moving my own limbs.

oh crap, what was it....oh yeah, : )

THE EXHAUSTION in the muscles and mind. I can feel it wash over afterwards. I know they are linked somehow. Like after a seizure maybe? IDK but great thinkin

I have never heard of those types of headaches, SimplyUs. But it's strange--my headache went away last evening, and I was very tired, as I usually get after such a headache. And I do feel more weak today--just sort of wimpy, and as if my breathing is shallow. Maybe this is a similar headache thing? I'll do a little searching online, too, and see if I find anything new. If I do, I'll let you know. Have a great day and thanks!

couchtater: Thanks for that info about migraine meds, too. Maybe it's something I should check with my doctor. Have a great day, also! :)
