I suffer from migraines and have participated on a Headache list similar to
this for over two years. I have never heard of any connection between
hypothyroidism and its treatment and migraines. Doesn't mean it isn't the
case but I've also read lots of web sites and books too! For women there
is a strong aspect of hormonal mediation of headaches. We do know that
hypothyroidism and hormone levels interact and that could be what they are
concerned about. That is what the Dr. should have explained then! I still
can't imagine that justifies leaving the thyroid problem untreated though,
even *if* there is any connection.
