Recent studies suggest that migraine headaches can be from sleep deprivation.  Sleep, is the most inevitable of all our bodily functions, that gives us rest. The basic need for sleep is a unique experience for each individual. It rejuvenates and refreshes.  But sleeping in the same position all night can compound headaches for example if you sleep on a preferred side, right, left or back position. American Headache Society (AHS) President David Dodick, MD, says sleep disruption is one of the most important migraine triggers, yet very little is known about the molecular pathways that link sleep to headache pain. www.americanheadachesociety.org
