Do Others Think That You Now Have A Migraine Since You Got What You Wanted Done Not What They Wanted?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I had the above occur and someone got angry at me for this when in reality I thought I could have one all day and after work it started but I tried preventing it with meds and water. This did not work and thus it became non functional after we did what I wanted and did not get to what they wanted to do. I believe the stress from this person and this incident and the stress at work triggered it. How do you deal with this?

It sounds like a non-believer. If they have never had one, they seem to be the person that has little to no compassion for others and is very selfish. Move on from people like this. If they have no… read more

Desperate For Help With Managing Multiple Auras With Migraine Daily. Open To Any/all Suggestions
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone! I've survived migraine for 30 years now. I didn't always get an aura but the last year has been all about them. I'm 49 now so I'm thinking hormones are the culprit possibly??? I'm also extremely sensitive to barometric pressure changes and live in a very unstable climate(southern Alberta, Canada, which is known for Chinook winds). Regardless, I am getting these auras with different degrees of pain sometimes 3 times a day!! Needless to say my quality of life is suffering… read more

Serotonin Syndrome
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have experience with Serotonin Syndrome
I take Relpax for my episodic migraines.
I also take very low dose Pamelor (Nortriptaline) for chronic migraine pain.
I occasionally take Zofran for nausea and
Lorazepam occasionally for insomnia and anxiety.
It is RARE that I take these all together but I am learning that combining any 2 of them can lead to Serotonin Syndrome which is something definitely to avoid.
I’m having a particularly terrible night, migraine, nausea,… read more

Too Much Sun?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I spent a lot of time in the sun yesterday. Went for a 2 mile run- 25 minutes and then spent maybe another 35 minutes doing photography outside. Started having a pulsating headache around 4:30 PM. Can too much Vitamin D cause migraine?

Might heat rather than vitamin d. Try a cool shower and see if that helps to prevent headaches. It helps me.
