A headache and sleep disorders are one of the most common disease that a front–line physician faces. Also, many people experience that a headache is improved by having taken the sleep well or a headache may occur adversely. Sleep and the headache have bi–directional association.
Interestingly, the disorders linked to migraine are quite varied, not only including insomnia, snoring and obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs, circadian rhythm disorders, narcolepsy but also almost all other diseases such as hypertension, depression, diabetes, obesity and dementia. Central sensitization of brain may be one cause for chronicity of them. Moreover, limbic system may contribute to pathophysiology of migraine and sleep.
If you master one thing, you can see others. Deep thoughts based on headache and sleep research will make new strategy for neurotherapeutics.
