Migraines in men linked to heart attack risk

Men who experience migraines are somewhat more likely to have heart attacks than are men who don’t get the headaches, a new study suggests.

The curious association comes from a study of more than 20,000 men, ages 40 to 84, who recorded their medical status in annual questionnaires. Seven percent of the men reported migraines during the first 5 years of the trial.
