Re: Migraines
Mon, June 27, 2005 - 9:26 AMI have had my own struggles with migraines over the years...and only now noticed when I read that...that I didn't have any during pregnancy. But otherwise...I have had them consistantly over the years...until now. I finally discovered that ALL my migraines were triggered by food allergies. As the article says....it is different for everyone. But this is what finally stopped them for me. I watch what I eat very carefully and have not had one in a while...knock on wood. -

Re: Migraines
Sat, August 13, 2005 - 9:40 AMMigraines....be careful!! After being treated in various ways...physical therapy, drugs...I got a call from a very observant doctor that happened to notice something on a CT scan ( I had been in a car accident... rear ended on the freeway by a guy doing about 70 as I was stopped for an accident ahead of me). Turns out that I had a "mass" behind my left eye. Had surgery in Feb and another in April. I very rarely get headaches anymore unless I am really stressed out. I thank God for that Doctor.....she probably saved my life!!! -

Re: Migraines
Thu, September 8, 2005 - 12:24 PMI never had them until I was about 25 and when I first got them they were so bad I couldn't even lie down to sleep! I had to sit sleeping straight up, propped on a pillow on my boyfriend while he was sitting against the wall....
I never could figure it out - but I did find out that my mom, grandmother AND my grandmother's father had them really bad. If I drink red wine, (too close to my monthly..) I get one - if I don't get enough sleep, I get one - if I eat a lot of fermented items - olives with cheeses and wines, even kimchee, I get one.
I told my doctor I thought I must have a tumor or something - he laughed at me! Per my request he sent me for an MRI and even those people laughed at me. : ( But I turned out okay and have learned to get enough sleep, not get too stressed out and when I just can't take it anymore, I pop a Zomig and go to bed with a pillow over my head.
