I have had about 100 migraines since september. I didn't realize at first they were migraines because I didn't see an aura. The migraines started every once in a while. They have gotten much worse, daily, all day and night. I believe the trigger is lack of sleep. I can't take medications that have caffeine because I'm allergic to them. My stomach bothers me, noise bothers me when I have a migraine. I have shotting pains in my temples, the top of my head hurts, the back of my head where my neck starts hurts. The pain even goes into my eyes sometimes. I have an appointment next week with a neurologist. I do drink quite a bit of fluids a day. I'm now avoiding MSG. I have no artificial sweetners. I'm now avoiding nuts. I didn't realize my soup had MSG in the begining and also I was having peanut butter every day. I also don't eat choclate. I stopped both of those. I'm concerned about my health and the risk of a stroke. I'm only taking tylenol now. I can't take ibuprophen because I have IBS and GERD.
