Ive suffered from migraines almost all my life but lately ive noticed them getting more frequent and more severe, also, my stomach has been swollen and cramping for the past 3 weeks and recenty, the pain has moved into my back aswell
As far as i can tel my bowel and bladder are fine, ive been urinating more frequently but it doesnt really hurt, though sometimes it is quite strong
I was on the contraceptive pill for 6 years but havent taken that now for about 7 weeks
I was due for a period at the beginning of February but have yet to of had one
Ive noticed, for the past 2 days that ive been getting mild heart palpitations which ive never noticed before and i am constantly tired, it doesnt matter what im doing or how much sleep im getting i just constantly feel the need to have a nap, i only work part time, 4 hours a day, 3 days a week and even that exhausts me!
The whole thing is getting me down, i feel like crying because im so frustrated with it all

Make an appointment with your OB/GYN!
As for migraines, Most important is to avoid all excitotoxins. After all, research indicates that this is the central cause of the problem and explains why some anti-seizure medications work. This means avoid all MSG, aspartame, hydrolyzed protein, isolated protein, protein drinks, soy products and soy
proteins, Portabella mushrooms, sodium or calcium caseinate, stock, broth and natural flavoring. All of these are major triggers for migraine.
Increase your magnesium intake significantly. It takes a long time for oral magnesium to raise depleted brain levels to normal, as much as 6 months. Yet, relief can begin within hours. Vegetables are high in magnesium, so increase your vegetable intake. To assure maximum intake, I would suggest taking magnesium citrate or citrate/malate, two capsules three times a day between meals. If you develop diarrhea, start with
two capsules a day and slowly over a week’s time increase the dose.
Low blood sugar depletes magnesium and increases
brain excitotoxin levels (glutamate). Avoid all sugar especially soft drinks. Drink purified water. You can empty a capsule of magnesium into your water. Including beans with your meals slows carbohydrate absorption. Also, avoid all potatoes except sweet potatoes. Irish potatoes are strongly hypoglycemic.
Riboflavin Take 500 mg. three times a day to significantly
reduce migraine attacks, by protecting against excitotoxicity.
Anti-inflammatory flavonoids are important. That’s because inflammation of the involved blood vessels plays a major role in the disorder. The best
are curcumin, quercetin, hesperidin, feverfew and nettle. All should be taken with meals.
Free radicals also play a role and are closely connected to inflammation and excitotoxicity. Increase your intake of natural vitamin E (Unique-E 800 IU a day), magnesium ascorbate (1,000 mg. twice a day between meals) and take a multivitamin/mineral supplement daily. White tea (decaffeinated) will also reduce inflammation, calm nerves and it is a powerful antioxidant
DHA component of fish oils also reduce inflammation and reduce migraine attacks. Take 200 mg. twice a day. You can mix the quercetin and curcumin with the oil to increase absorption. Keep the DHA in the refrigerator. If you follow this program to the letter, you will either completely relieve your migraine or dramatically reduce the severity.
The drugs used to treat migraine are often very dangerous and can increase the risk of a stroke or heart attack.
