A quick note for people responding, you might have a mild form of vascular dysregulation or flammer's syndrome. It can manifest as migraines and a decreased sensation of thirst, as well as other symptoms like cold extremities.

Afaik it's pretty harmless in general but it is associated with certain vision issues (normal tension glaucoma). Glaucoma is irreversible but has many treatment options especially if caught early. But you MUST go in for a (fast, cheap, painless) screening to catch it, it's really hard to detect unless there are issues otherwise. Please consider this if you really are showing a lot of these symptoms.

How interesting!

I have had mild tinnitus my whole life (with no obvious lifestyle cause), and my migraines do often manifest as pain / pressure behind the eyelid. But I don't have any of the myriad other symptoms listed for Flammer syndrome - I sleep fine, my blood pressure is fine, I'm pretty solidly built (not underweight), I don't get cold easily, etc.

It is interesting to consider I might some sort of related disorder, though!

I would still consider the glaucoma check. I don't think that you can even necessarily get a Flammer syndrome diagnosis, it's not a disease afaik, just a pattern.

Glaucoma is the condition that matters and if you don't run the (fast, cheap, painless) check you can miss a serious issue.

If the risk is normal-tension glaucoma, then simply measuring ocular pressures isn't going to be valuable. What test are you thinking of?

I used to have warm and sweaty hands. Since I picked up bouldering I realised everyone is using chalk but I hardly sweat in my hands (I still sweat). My hands felt colder, and I don’t feel thirsty that if I don’t drink enough water it triggers headache. Took me quite some time to associate the headache with dehydration. Thanks for the reply. I will try to get myself a check up

Just get the glaucoma check (I don't think that you can even necessarily get a Flammer syndrome diagnosis, it's not a disease). That's the condition that matters and if you don't run a formal (fast, cheap, painless) check you can miss a serious issue.
