I get really bad migraines as a side effect of celiacs. I've been strictly gluten free for almost 5 years. I don't have episodes that often but when I do, the pain in both my stomach and head hits me within 2-24 hours after consumption and lasts about a day. I've had a migraine for about 12 days now, coming back when I wake up from my zombie life. I've tried so many things, I don't even know what to do anymore.
Do you think you ate something or is it environmental?
@CKBlossom - I was under the impression that it was strictly things that i was eating… could be more sensitive than i originally thought or it’s gotten worse.
Have you been checked for a sinus infection? I also have celiacs. I was feeling exceptionally miserable and the doctors in the er kept telling me it was migraines. I went to my gp and he did 1 x-ray! Just 1! and said my sinus cavities were nothing but solid infection. The key here, to me, was the headaches start when you wake up. Might be worth checking out....
@sameboat1964 I have not, getting into the doctor is a big difficult for me as my health insurance is worthless, and i just don’t have the money for xrays… and big visits like that. Sinus infections wow, didn’t event think about that honestly. But thanks for the heads up, definitely something ill have to check into
