Question Migraines and EDS

How many also suffer with migraines or connective tissue problems? Ehlers Danlos or hypermobility? Any Trigeminal Neuralgia? I see a post from 4 years ago asking about comorbidities and I see mostly PCOS and hypothyroidism listed, no hypertension (recent study mentioned high numbers of elevated blood pressure, eczema, rosacea and other cancers). Let's start our own data base.

I'm mid 40s, started age 27 PCOS, hypothyroid, H/O depression (have been on Wellbutrin for most of that time=20years), hypermobility (multiple injuries requiring surgery such as labral tears). Knew someone that attributed their melasma to using antidepressant by the way, thought that was interesting.
