Having a friendly debate and want to ask an expert to solve this. One group claims that the term
Migraine is derived from to migrate in Latin (describing one of the characteristics of the
migraine). The other group doesn't believe that migraine has anything to do with migrating headaches
in the term migraine. Would like a link stating this is the case if you know of one or a reference
that corroborates this. Cheers!

are due to venal constriction...usually due to excess caffiene intake ( over 350 >mg in 1-1/2 cups
of coffee)."MIGRATING" is a condition (medically) Of a pain or disease that MOVES from one pLace to another
or SPREADING from a central location.I realize that our school system's propensity for "DUMBING DOWN" our youngsters and allowing them
to grow more ignorant as they get older is rampant in our "ADVANCED" ( pardon the pun)
civilization..LOL! It's pathetci! B-0b1
