    Joining with Headaches/Migranes

    Few years ago i used to suffer from migranes, never had anytime off for them but did get prescribed medication for them, havent suffered from them for about 6 months, and if i did its only a paracetamol based pain killer i use. There is notes of this on my medical records,is this gonna put a halt on my application

    Estne volumen in toga, an solum tibi libet me videre? (Is that a scroll in your toga, or are you just happy to see me?)

    A few years ago I was rejected because of migraines, the reason given is that they can be caused by stress ..
    fast forward a few years, the cause was identified and sorted/managed, after 3 years practically symtom free they didnt bat an eye lid on my med ..

    Pop along and ask, it will help if you know the trigger ..

    When I had my medical I mentioned that i had them occasionally (maybe twice a year).

    The Doctor wasn't bothered.

    Have you spoken to your local cadet unit about becoming an AI?
    ‘Good God!’ he laughed, and slowly filled his pipe,
    Wondering ‘why he always talked such tripe’.
