Fluids Hypertension Syndromes: Migraines, Headaches, Normal ...

Fluids Hypertension Syndromes – Dr. Leonardo Izecksohn – page 56
The 134 patients with occipital migraines had the Etiologies:
- 80 patients (59.7%) drank too much water, with an average of 3.5 liters daily;
- 76 patients (49.7%) drank caffeine, as coffee, tea, mate or soft drinks daily.
- 59 patients (44%) drank coffee, mate or tea;
- 45 patients (33.6%) drank caffeinated soft drinks;
- 33 patients (24.6%) drank beer;
- 22 patients (16.4%) took medications that raise the fluids pressures;
- 7 patients (5.2%) drank wine;
Other authors also found these etiologies: At Munich, Germany... “A total of 1260 adolescents from
the 10th and 11th grades of high schools... High consumption of cocktails (odds ratio = 3.4) and coffee
(2.4), smoking (2.7), and lack of physical activity (2.2) were significantly associated with migraine plus
tension-type headache episodes.” (Milde-Busch A, and others).
At these 134 patients with occipital migraines, we found the following during the examination:
- 76 patients (56.7%) presented minimal Optic Nerve's borders edema, and
- 23 patients (17.2%) presented evident Optic Nerve's borders edema.
- 14 patients out of these above 99 patients, presented also peri-vascular white sheaths around the Optic
Nerve disk vessels.
- 18 patients (13.4%) suspects of glaucoma; some of these also with the minimal Optic Nerve’s borders
edema.
- 15 patients (11.2%) presented incipient glaucoma;
- 5 patients (3.7%) presented advanced glaucoma.
- In only 7 patients (5.2%) we did not found any etiology to their occipital migraines.
We conclude that Occipital Migraine or tenderness of the pericranial and neck muscles, in
94.8% of patients is a symptom of Ocular or Cerebrospinal Fluids Hypertension Syndromes.
Other physicians perform surgeries: “Of 206 patients (with occipital neuralgia), 190 underwent greater
occipital nerve neurolysis (171 bilateral). Twelve patients underwent greater and lesser occipital
nerve excision, whereas four underwent lesser occipital nerve excision alone... 80.5 percent of patients
experienced at least 50 percent pain relief and 43.4 percent of patients experienced complete relief of
headache. Surgical Neurolysis of the greater occipital nerve appears to provide safe, durable pain relief
in the majority of selected patients with chronic headaches caused by occipital neuralgia.” (Ducic I, and
others).
It is evident that these patients with occipital neuralgia, despite the definitive anesthesia caused by the
surgical neurolysis, will continue to suffer from all the other signs, symptoms and sicknesses caused by
the Fluids' Hypertension Syndromes and the caffeine toxicity. The neurolysis cured only the symptom,
but not the etiologies or the sicknesses. And the sicknesses can be much more important than the aches.
VI-9 – Photophobia (Light sensitivity).: Between 931 migraine patients we collected 124 with Photophobia.
These 124 patients with photophobia also presented the following signs and symptoms:
- 56 patients (45.2%) presented wide frontal migraines;
- 44 patients (35.5%) felt tearfulness and rhinitis;
- 42 patients (33.9%) worsened on awakening;
- 32 patients (25.8%) had blepharitis because of rubbing their eyes with their hands;
- 18 women (25.7% out of the 70 women) worsened rhythmically during the menstrual cycle;
- 31 patients (25%) felt ocular migraines;
- 22 patients (17.7%) felt temporal or at the head-top (vertex) Migraines.
- 17 patients (13.7%) presented eyelid edemas;
- 16 patients (12.9%) presented eye redness (eye erythema);
