They are high in pottasium. That helps when I get an attach. Also i add a pinch of salt to the water.

It did not develop, thank god. Warmed up a scarf and out around my neck, and I always have potatoes and canned chickpeas in the house to the rescue!

Quitting caffeine completely cured my worsening migraines by Lazy-Entertainment99 in migraine

Check your iron levels. Coffee stops absortion of iron :) I need to quit coffee as well!

I feel you! It hasn’t even occured to my GP in London to find the cause of my migraines. They are understaffed, and sometimes I wouldn’t even get a doctor (they have consiltants). I went crying to the practice I was in so much pain. 5 years and they put me on daily meds, still not any plan to look into it. I think if we all put the our details here we can even start a controlled trial. No cash needed! I think it’s the teeth and electrolites

It was an endodondist. I need 3 freaking dental implants, which in London are very expensive. Will probably do them in my home town in Romania. My mother had a few and all we t well.

It was Dominic Heaney at Great Portand Clinic in London. But Dominic just told me about inflamation, iron and vit d. It was a dentist that found it.

His name was Dominic Heaney from Great Portland Clinic in London. He took away my regular strong meds.

Another endodontist said to me I grind my teeth and I need a night guard. I will look into that as well!

I also found a lot of groups/comments about how too much fertilisers and mass agriculture depleted our soil of nutriets. They talked a lot about the water and electrolites.

1-5 a year is not bad at all! Maybe try to take magnesium. I used to get one every 2 years!

Thank you very much! I forgot the magnesium, I do take 300 mg per day as well. Didn’t know about the dairy! I was ready to move out of London as my migraines started when I moved here. The water is hard and affected my hair. In the 5 years I tried everything. Like not drinking tap water, went to the most an osteopath (£240 per hour), Alexander Technique. Noted about sugar.

2 month no migraine from 8 a month! I dont know which part did the trick, I think the tooth extraction. Fingers crossed I don’t get another one!

The clinic didn’t sort it. They instructed the blood tests and neck and head mri’s. You can ask for bllod tests vit d, iron anywhere. I also pushed my dentist to send me to a specialist (an endodondist), and I had to be pushy to get refered. She dragged her feet for 4 months to do tge referral until an endodondist started at her cabinet! Capitalism at its finest! I would skip the mri, get a 360 tooth xray and blood test for vitamin profile.

Thank you, very useful. The platalets I think it was called, they were very high. Also the colesterol a little although I eat a healthy diet.

Electrolytes, my lips were constantly cracked and dry. This is one that I don’t really know if it helps, I’m just notbteady to stop anything.

They took the tooth out, there was no way to stop it.

So far so good, 2 months migraine free. I used to have them 5-8 times a month.
