Is the threat of earthquakes trigger migraines in some people?
My wife has always been a migraine 24-48 hours before an earthquake. Has anyone ever experienced?

Im just speculating here, but i studied the physics and effects of earthquakes for my PhD. There may be a better medical explanation and i’m sure you will get other answers. But, it could be possible that the earthquake could slight change the elevation of your location, hence bringing on a new altitude, and the sudden change of altitude results in a headache. Sort of how like some people get bad headaches when they are in a plane and when it reaches the air. Sudden change of altitutde effects some people.
Hope that helps =] -

http://www.angelfire.com/id/croon/nikki/earthquakemigraines.htmlPerhaps it is related to air pressure or the tension she feels just before. Does it go away after it stops? Does she only get headaches on their occurrence?
I wonder if there is some effect just before an earthquake since they happen so suddenly and instantly. They can measure seismic activity before an earthquake. I wonder if she can feel the slight tremors before and this subconsciously gives her deep tension?
Here is a cool earthquake monitoring site:

YES! Without a doubt. On Wed. my head started hurting. That evening I asked somebody about the fault line in the midwest – because I had this nagging feeling that an earthquake was about to happen. The feeling intensified last night, along with my headache. The first thing I heard on the news this morning was the earthquake in Missouri/Illinois. My headache is gone now. No, I don’t think it is a coincidence because it has happened to me before.
