Hypnic Headache

We present a case of hypnic headache successfully managed with occipital nerve stimulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 64-year-old female presented with a four-year history of a right occipital headache that regularly awakened her from sleep. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Nocturnal Awakening

    OBJECTIVE: Hypnic headaches (HHs) are unique because of late life onset and characteristic periodic nocturnal awakening. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    He denied nocturnal awakenings and daytime napping both planned and unplanned. However, his bed-partner's (wife's) information regarding his sleep was contradictory. According to her, he used to grind teeth almost every night during sleep. [doi.org]

  • Choking

    Another is that the vascular constriction that happens during migraine episodes doesn't choke off cerebral blood flow enough to cause aura symptoms. [flipper.diff.org]

  • Suggestibility

    Improvements in ICHD-II criteria are suggested, especially to introduce the typical motor behaviour acted out by HH patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Homonymous Hemianopsia

    Migraine accompaniments may consist of visual symptoms such as transient blindness, homonymous hemianopsia (loss of vision on one side of one’s visual field), and blurring of vision ; paresthesias (numbness, tingling, pins-and-needles sensation), a heavy [webmd.com]

We reviewed the literature to evaluate the usual diagnostic workup performed in hypnic headache patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

If lithium treatment does not provide a significant response, indomethacin can be commenced as second-line approach. If these treatments prove to be ineffective or poorly tolerated, other agents, such as caffeine and melatonin, can be administered. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We describe results of an internet based survey to identify people with Hypnic Headache and seek their descriptions of headache symptoms, treatment options, prognosis and theories on causation. [severe-headache-expert.com]

Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. [icd10coded.com]

Until a population based epidemiologic survey is completed, we will never be able to establish the true demographics of people with Hypnic Headache. [severe-headache-expert.com]

Epidemiology Originally believed to be a disorder of the elderly, subsequent reports suggest that the disorder may begin earlier, but many patients suffer for decades before the diagnosis is made. [flipper.diff.org]

METHOD: Current studies that deal with the pathophysiology of HH are summarized. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

As for prevention, a wide variety of medications were reported to be of benefit in HH. The drugs that were found to be effective in at least five cases are: lithium, indomethacin, caffeine and flunarizine. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Some alarm clock headache sufferers have been prescribed Topamax (topiramate) to prevent these headaches. Anti-inflammatory drugs may also be recommended for preventing or treating them upon waking. [migrainerelief.com]
