I get migraines or just started too. But never get head aches. Migraines for me just make light too overwhelming to look at but it isn’t pain. It’s almost confusion it causes me.

I’ve never gotten a headache in space.

They mention this in the article, but the physiology would suggest this is related to CSF/blood pooling in low G.
Taking it a step further, I bet this has a similar mechanism to IIH or the high pressure headaches you get with obstructive hydrocephalus. CSF is supposed to drain down via a relatively passive system. Without G to regulate this I can envision that you’d essentially develop the same physiology as someone with IIH (too much CSF).
Really interesting. A good example of how we have no idea what insane health things we are going to experience with space travel, but also how space travel may shed insight on treatments for other conditions with similar mechanisms we experience in a gravity well.

Haven’t this is interesting because I’ve always wondered how evolution would happen when we finally colonize in low g environs. Maybe char was on to something when he said our souls are weighed down by gravity.

If Constellation on Apple TV is right, then it’s an indication that the person has become quantum entangled with their alternative self in another universe.
Good show btw if you are looking for something more psychological with a sci-fi background.

Too much blood in their head because of zero g?
The article suggests something similar:
“As gravity loosens its grip, blood, lymph and cerebrospinal fluid drift from their usual locations and begin to exert pressure elsewhere.”
There are people that don’t get headaches?
I rarely get headaches. Haven’t really ever gotten any headaches throughout my life.
Same, maybe 1 or 2 really mild ones, that were just kind of annoying for a minute or so
Here I am getting migraines so bad I contemplate self- terminating on a monthly basis. Life can be cruel.
My mom gets that as well, seems awful
