Also, facial pain affected 21 per cent of the 42 people with
hemicrania continua -- a rare type of headache with continuous pain that varies in severity.
Overall, facial involvement was reported in 45.0, 21.4, and 20.0 percent, respectively, of patients with paroxysmal
hemicrania,
hemicrania continua, and short-lasting neuralgiform headache attacks with conjunctival injection and tearing/short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks with cranial autonomic symptoms.
Those with paroxysmal
hemicrania -- a type of headache with severe, often short attacks on one side of the head -- had the highest rate of facial pain (45%).
The signs and symptoms of the primary headache disorders such as tension-type headache, migraine, or
hemicrania continua may mimic the clinical features of CH.
Types of headache noted were Tension Type headache 69.2% (n = 63), Migraine 17.5(n = 16), cluster headache 2.1(n = 2),
hemicrania continua 1.09% (n = 1), medication over use headache (MOH) 3.2% (n = 3), occipital Neuralgia 2.1% (n = 2), supra orbital neuralgia 1.09% (n = 1), coexisting migraine and TTH 3.2% (n = 3).
Presentations at the meeting will highlight new data that span migraine, chronic cluster headache and chronic paroxysmal
hemicrania patient populations, as well as co-occurrences relating to functional disorders, such as primary headache.
The two most common disorders in this rubic are chronic tension type headache (CTTH) and transformed migraine other disorders include
hemicrania continua new daily persistent headache (NDPH) and various chronic short duration headache such as chronic cluster headache, chronic paroxysmal
hemicranias, and hypnic headache.

Following approval by the Institutional Review Board of Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital, the proprietary Partners Healthcare Physician On-Line Reporting (POLR) system database was used to obtain medical record numbers for a representative sample of patients listed as having received ICD-9 diagnostic codes for migraine, cluster headache, or
hemicrania continua at the John R.
