I don't have sugar at all and I ge...here here! I don't have sugar at all and I get lots and lots of headaches. I don't drink alcohol, don't smoke...anything..., don't drink coffee, don't drink 'normal' tea (unless I have a headache and it helps ease the pain!), rarely eat chocolate and generally have a very healthy diet. I've had headaches for years and years and years and years, some months I have more headache days than pain free days. This past month I've had a headache most days with a few migraines thrown in...and yet....I was doing so well, just a few headaches each month for most of this year and I thought woooo hoooo, finally have it under control! but no...they've come back with a vengence. I blame everything on hormones! Most of my headaches were hormone fluctuation related and other headaches were just ...well...who knows. Anyway, I've learnt to live with it. Tried cutting out this and that in my diet but to no avail. Sometimes I have a migraine and I think 'well, I didn't have any chocolate etc last night and it's made no difference'. Very frustrating. I've taken feverfew every day for years now and they do reduce the severity of migraines so no more vomiting which is a relief. And I take other remedies that help ease the pain but nothing so far takes the pain completely away. At least they are bearable most of the time. Sometimes I can pinpoint why I have a headache if it's not hormone related but most of the time they come just for the heck of it. <br />So yeah, those who don't get headaches don't know how good they've got it alright!<br />Sending commiserations and soothing vibes to fellow headachers.Kazablancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765626198947801091noreply@blogger.com
