    I have had migraines.
    I went to my chiropractor of all people.(she is also a natropath) She determined that I was sensitive to wheat gluten, but not all gluten. She modified my diet.

    Immediately, that day... I began to feel better.

    I had the aura feeling twice that I was going to have A migrane, but both times none came. All I had was a super mild regular strength headache.
    Relieved with basic Ibuprofin.

    Wow!!
    So I got bored of my new diet, went back to my old diet for two days, and went immediately back into a full crippling migrane.

    So, I went back to the old diet.

    No more headaches.

    The allergist did state that a true allergy would create rash and obvious allergy symptoms, but a sensitivity will cause I'll feelings and poor health.


    So my recommendation. See a nutritionalist. This is a primary function of what they do.

    I was diagnosed with chronic daily headaches a few years ago because there was a time that I had mild migraines (if you can imagine that) 24 hours per day. I know no longer have them all day everyday but I do get full blown migraines now. I was on Zonegran and it helped. I got preggers so obviosuly did not take it anymore. I did not have headaches during pregnancy and for about 2.5 years after he was born. Recently I have been getting them daily again. I do not see/ notice any triggers for me, they are just always there, in the back ground. The reason behind this rambling is to tell you that excedrim migraine is the only thing that works for me. RX pain pills make my head feel like the inside is boiling how. I would recommend the journal and see if you can see a pattern and always keep some excedrin on hand.
