Short Communication Hemicrania continua: a case report

The first case of Hemicrania continua in Greece is reported; a female of 47 years with a 17-year history of right-sided headache. For the last year, she had a moderate pain on the left side (amounting to 10-15 % of the right-sided one and occurring only ccasionally, i.e. when the right-sided pain was severe). After 17 years the pain still had a remitting course with pain periods of around three weeks interrupted by pain-free periods of approximately ten days. The indomethacin effect is complete. • Chronic paroxysmal hemicrania, Hemicrania continua, indomethaci
