The ibuprofen experiment did not work as hoped......

2015-11-11T12:46:00.002+00:00

Hello reader,

Just a small update, to say that the ibuprofen experiment that I detailed in my last post did not work. I still experienced a migraine just as bad as always.

I have received a message from a reader to say that there is a BCP called Cerazette (progesterone only pill) which has been of benefit to her. She also mentioned that sometimes, GPs are reluctant to prescribe these to migraine sufferers who get auras, as there's a risk of stroke. Unfortunately, my migraines do include Auras, so I'm not sure if I'll go down that road at the moment.

Not sure what I'll try next! I'll keep you all posted!

Do get in touch if you have had any experience with any of the above.

Keeping up the vitamin D regime & ibuprofen experiment

2015-10-30T15:55:00.000+00:00

Dear reader,

You might remember from my last update that I have been raising my vitamin D levels, since I had a test which revealed a rather low reading this summer.

I have been faithfully taking the vitamin D, and will re-test soon. I'm hoping the levels will have gone up some.

I the meantime, I am still plagued by these pesky migraines, and so this month, have decided to try taking ibuprofen as a preventative, just for a few days, to see if it will make any difference whatsoever.

I will start the ibuprofen this coming Monday (2nd November), and continue taking it for a few days, until maybe about day 3 of my cycle.

I will of course update as to whether this has helped in any way!

Do get in touch if you have had any experience with any of the above.

Back to the Vitamin D issue - Menstrual Migraines

2015-08-11T22:10:00.000+01:00

So, you'd think I'd learn right?

If you read my previous post about Vitamin D (HERE) before, you'd think I would be really careful not to let my Vitamin D level drop too low right?....

I just got my recent test results back, and I am low, yet again, on this vital source of wellbeing (unbelieveably, considering we're supposed to be in the middle of Summertime here!)

So now, it's time to re-build those levels (and yes, my menstrual migraines have been steadily getting worse again - last month was an absolute nightmare).

I'm so glad I have this blog to read back on now, the answer is right here staring me in the face!

As before, it's not a set dose for everyone, it depends on the level you are currently at, location, weight, skin tone, age etc, so I am not going to discuss dosages, except to say, that if you know your current level, then visit http://grassrootshealth.net/ for a useful chart, to calculate your ideal dosage, to achieve better health.

And for those of you that haven't checked out Dr Stasha Gominak's information either on her website, on the excellent clips of her presentations on Youtube, then I absolutely recommend that you check out what she has to say. What she says makes so much sense to me, and having experienced first hand how much better I tend to feel when my D levels are closer to the range that she suggests, I know that she is really onto something.

Do get in touch if you have had any experience with any of the above.

The Relaxation Response by Dr. Herbert Benson, M.D

2015-07-21T15:54:00.001+01:00

Hi Readers,
Some of you may have heard of 'The Relaxation Response' by Dr Herbert Benson M.D., the following YouTube clip explains it pretty well - Dr Benson is featured on the clip, explaining the technique.
I'm intruiged as to whether this might be beneficial for Menstrual Migraines, and I plan to try this for the next 3 months (at least), to see whether it has any effect.

His book has further information if you wanted to read up.

Please comment below,if you have experience of this, or if you have/had menstrual migraines and managed to overcome them, I'd love to hear from you.

Some interesting reading on migraines (including the menstrual variety)

2015-07-11T20:20:00.000+01:00

Hello dear reader,

I have stumbled across some information on Dr Gominak's website, which I think might be of interest to you, if you have menstrual migraines.

On this page, if you scroll down about 2 thirds of the page, and look for a section titled

Gonadotropin releasing hormone and migraine:

http://drgominak.com/more-on-migraines.html

It's explained a lot for me, as I sometimes get an ovulation migraine too - so it does make perfect sense, when you read her explanation.

It has given me a lot to think about....

I will let you know if it prompts another experiment in the near future ;)

Update on vitamin D3 pills and Vegepa

2015-05-10T16:57:00.002+01:00

Hello readers,

Just realised its time to update this blog, with the latest developments! (For those that are still following).

The Vitamin D is still a part of my regime, although I do still get migraines on a monthly basis.

I have also been taking a supplement for the last 3 months called 'Vegepa' (see website: Vegepa ) which seems to have been helping a great deal!

I've been trying not to get too excited, as some of these things seem to help at first, but the effects don't always last.

During my last cycle, I merely had a mild headache, (which was manageable) and the migraine symptoms that I usually experience, didn't make an appearance luckily (i.e., nausea, tingling arms, pain behind the eye, throbbing head etc).
Since I began taking them, I immediately noticed more energy & ability to focus. I have continued to take them, and am noticing feeling better in a general sense, and not as fatigued.

I will make an effort to update this more often, would like to thank you for visiting this blog!

Also, if you have any information on this topic, anything that has helped you, or any comments, I would be very interested to hear your views :)

The vitamin D capsules that I am be taking can be seen on This Link.

Vitamin D for Menstrual Migraines

2012-09-14T18:00:00.002+01:00

Hello readers,

Vitamin D is proving to be very helpful in my battle against the Menstrual Migraines that have plagued me for so long!

I am having blood tests every 6 months, to check my vitamin D levels.

The level started off rather low, but I have been getting out in the sun (making sure I don't burn!), and taking supplements, and eating oily fish.

My level has since gone up and is getting there. Dr Stasha Gominak (linked to on a previous post) says that 60-80ng/ml seems to be the ideal level to ensure that the body repairs properly during sleep. My level still has a little way to go before I'm in that golden zone, but I am certainly noticing benefits from the raised levels in the meantime.

My Menstrual Migraines have significantly decreased, in fact during my most recent period, I did not have so much as a headache.
My fingernails have started to really grow!!
I have a bit more energy.

It's early days, after all, but I shall continue to post any progress as I go along.

Thanks to everyone that has posted comments, it's good to hear that my experiments have helped others!

The capsules that I'm taking are on This Link

Day 4 of cycle - still touching wood......

2012-01-29T21:03:00.003+00:00

Hi readers,

Just a quick update to say that it is the end of day 4, and still I have not had a migraine - this is marvellous stuff....I'll update again soon!

Day 2 of Cycle - Migraine Free So Far!

2012-01-27T14:29:00.013+00:00

Hi Readers,

Well, this is exciting - I am currently on day 2 of my cycle, and I have not yet experienced a migraine! Yay!

All that I have had so far (on day 1 of my cycle) was a little bit of neck stiffness (that didn't last longer than 30 minutes), and a little nausea, which passed very quickly.

But - NO PAIN!!

I am very pleased, as you might well imagine if you have similar problems.

If you saw my last post a couple of days ago, you will have seen that I recently tested low for Vitamin D, so I have begun supplementation in order to raise my levels. This is the only change I have made, so it seems logical that this may have something to do with it.

I would like to suggest looking at Dr Stasha Gominak's website: http://drgominak.com/headache-migraine which explains much more about the link between Vitamin D/sleep/migraine etc.

Dr Stasha Gominak is also on YouTube (see links below) the content of her talk is fascinating and certainly explains a lot!

I will update again in a day or so, to let you guys know if any migraines pop up, but so far, it's all good news!!

Keep well!

Lou.

Long time no see! Probably as I'm low in Vitamin D!

2012-01-25T10:45:00.004+00:00

Hi readers,

Apologies for the long absence, but I think I may have finally got to the bottom of my problems.

I recently had my Vitamin D level tested with these people: http://www.grassrootshealth.net

It turns out that my level is rather low.

This would explain a great deal, regarding my health issues (including menstrual migraines).

My aim now, is to get my vitamin D levels up to the ideal range (using supplements/the sun - if we ever get any/tanning beds for short periods/eating oily fish), so that I can see if it makes a difference!

I am planning to test my levels again in about 2 months to see if there's any progress.

There are some very informative clips on YouTube that you may find interesting, here are a couple of really cracking videos:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHCD3fONV1k&feature=youtube_gdata_player

and

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lRtx-4_FOY&feature=youtube_gdata_player

(I'm not sure if those links are working, so you may need to copy & paste the link into your browser.)

There are also many books on Amazon etc that are very informative on the subject.

I would be interested to hear of other people's experiences with this and whether they managed to eliminate their menstrual migraines by getting their Vitamin D levels back up into the optimal range. Please comment if you have anything to add.

The capsules that I will be taking can be seen on This Link.
Thanks for reading!

These Migraines still keep coming...

2011-01-31T16:12:00.002+00:00

Hi Readers,

My new cycle began on Friday, this is how the pattern went:

Friday (Day 1): Bad headache which turned into a migraine.
Saturday (Day 2): Headache in the afternoon, mega uterine cramps (felt like contractions) in the evening.
Sunday (Day 3): Felt extremely tired and had a real lack of concentration.
Monday (Day 4): Still very tired, (mild headache lurking in the background) concentration still difficult.

So, it's hard to say whether any of the stuff I am doing is helping or not, however, I managed to get through it all with only two doses of painkillers, which is pretty good.

For the rest of this cycle, I will continue with the:

Oil Pulling (with Organic Virgin Coconut Oil)
Butterbur Capsules (75mg twice per day)
Yoga
Pranayama Alternate Nostril Breathing & Brahmari (Humming Bee Breath)
(and anything else that may crop up!) and keep you all posted on the progress of these.

The Butterbur capsules take a while to work apparently, so it may be a few months before I get any benefit from those - here's hoping!

Hope you are all having a good day!

Lou :)

Oil pulling for Health Benefits & Whiter Teeth!

2011-01-26T12:33:00.004+00:00

Hi all,

This cycle seems to be going well so far, I did not have an ovulation migraine (I sometimes get those) and I am feeling pretty good in myself (not too much PMS) so all in all, I'm happy!

My next cycle is due to begin on Jan 29th, and in addition to the regimen on my last post I have added a few extras:

Oil Pulling with Organic Virgin Coconut Oil - (yeah, I know, what's that?!) I've included the link at the beginning of this sentence, so read all about it if you're interested to find out more. There's so much info on this website about it, I was intrigued and figured it had to be worth a try!
Yoga - I've just started this, and am aiming at doing half hour Yoga per day. It's relaxing and calming (just what I need!) who knows if it will help, but it's worth a go.

When you begin doing the Oil-pulling, a little healing crisis can take place apparently. I just found that I felt very tired for a few days to start with, and I did come out in a few zits too!
The advantages have been: Whiter teeth! (even my Hubby commented that he thought they looked whiter!), less PMS (so far...)

I am still following this too:

•A dental splint (NTI-TSS, see link: http://www.nti-tss.com/) to prevent me from clenching my jaw during sleep (I am aware that I do this, and often have a sore jaw in the morning).

•Butterbur Capsules 75mg (Swanson Brand), one capsule twice a day with food, which are said to be good for preventing/relieving migraines.

I will update soon to document any other changes

Lou :)

Let's try again...

2011-01-09T17:11:00.001+00:00

Hi readers,

I posted last month to say that I would be trying the NTI-TSS dental splint, and the Butterbur 75mg capsules.

Since then, I have had a nasty bout of stomach flu, and was unable to take the capsules.

I will begin the experiment again, and let you all know what I think.

If anyone else has tried the above, I'd be keen to hear your thoughts!

Next cycle due to begin 29th Jan 2011. Will keep you all posted.

Lou :)

Onwards and Upwards

2010-12-24T17:14:00.001+00:00

Hi readers,

Just popping in to update you with the next experiment!

As from today, I am going to be trying:

A dental splint (NTI-TSS, see link: http://www.nti-tss.com/) to prevent me from clenching my jaw during sleep (I am aware that I do this, and often have a sore jaw in the morning).
Butterbur Capsules 75mg (Swanson Brand), one capsule twice a day with food, which are said to be good for preventing/relieving migraines.

My next cycle is due to begin on 2nd Jan 2011, so I will update soon to let you know if either of these seem to be helping.

In the meantime, Merry Christmas to everyone!

Lou :)

Ideas, anyone? (Migraine prevention)

2010-11-18T14:19:00.002+00:00

Hi all,

Since my last post, I have remained mostly vegetarian, which has helped my migraines to an extent, however, I have still had a few migraines in the meantime, so I know that I haven't completely kicked this thing.

So, now I'm opening it up to you, the reader, to put forward your suggestions, anything's worth a try!

Going Vegetarian helps my Menstrual Migraines!!

2010-09-15T13:15:00.002+01:00

Hi Readers!!

I haven't been around for a while (sorry) but I do have some new stuff to tell you!

Since my last post in March, I have become Vegetarian (mainly due to some digestion issues I was having) and, as well as helping the digestion issues, it has also made a huge improvement to my migraines - yay!!

I decided to go Veggie in May 2010 as an experiment initially, and only weeks later realised how much it was helping me in the migraines department.
(If you see my post from July 2009 you will see that I tried cutting out only red meat, to no effect. This time, I have cut out all meat/fish/flesh, and I have been using Quorn as a replacement)

Since that time I have not had to:

Take any Sumatriptan tablets
Miss any family days (I have a 4 year old boy)
Spend the day lying in a darkened room

Since then, on the recommendation of a friend, I have also been to see a Kinesiologist (don't ask me to explain what they do!) who tested me with various foods, and told me to lay off wheat & sugar.

I will see how that goes over a period of time.

The amazing Coconut Oil!

2010-03-17T11:25:00.005+00:00

Hi all,

I've been researching Virgin Coconut Oil as a health product recently, and decided to try some. It's one of those things where you often feel worse before you feel better, but I decided to go for it anyway! Here's my experiences with it:

When I first got hold of my tub of VCO, I enthusiastically tucked in and took 1tbsp straight away - what a big mistake that was! I felt lousy, had a banging headache which painkillers wouldn't touch, my joints ached, awful brain fog and I felt as though I was coming down with flu.

The next day, I decided to take a bit less, and so went for 1tsp, however, even this was too much for me by this point, so I had to cut back even further.

The following day, I reduced my total daily amount down to one eighth of a teaspoon (and I even split that in two and had half in the morning and half in the evening). This did seem to help, although I still had a bit of brain fog.

(I've even heard that it's a good Candida remedy!)

I gradually increased the amount by one sixteenth of a teaspoon per day (I know it sounds ridiculous, but I had to take it slow, as I couldn't bear the headaches otherwise).

I am now on a total of ½ a tablespoon per day (divided up into 4 separate doses) and seem to be doing quite well on that now. I will continue to increase the amount, until I am up to 3½ tbsp per day (hopefully).

Also, I have found a couple of products which help to reduce the die-off effect, these are Molybdenum drops and Pantethine Capsules. They seem to make a big difference and really help to reduce the brain fog & other symptoms so that I can get on with my life. Google it for yourself for more info.

The benefits I have noticed so far since taking the VCO internally are:

1. I feel generally calmer and happier.
2. I feel like I'm smiling more.
3. I have less anxiety.
4. I have lost weight - yay!
5. I have lost my sugar cravings.
6. I don't feel the need to keep snacking all the time.
7. I don't get as lightheaded when I get out of bed/stand up/get out of the bath.
8. My heartbeat has stopped racing.

I'm sure there are many more that I haven't thought of, I'll update if I think of any more. I'm hoping that it will help with my PMS symptoms and menstrual migraine this month too. I will post again to update with regards to that.

I have also been using it externally with excellent results:

1. On my scalp (which has been itching for the last 15 years!) it helps enormously.
2. Inside my ears (they've been itching for about a year or so) it makes a huge difference.
3. All over my body after showering, but before towelling dry (I picked this tip up from the forum on the above website) it makes my skin feel great. I also seem to feel 'cleaner' in between my showers.
4. As my facial moisturiser in the morning and before bed.
5. My husband has been using it to prevent shaving rash and it has made a big difference.
6. My husband also has large patches of very dry skin on his back, I've been massaging it in every day, and it's really helping with that too.

So, I have to say that I am very impressed with this amazing oil so far, now that I have got through the initial die-off period. It was well worth it!

Any questions/comments, please message me ;)
(There's LOTS of info online regarding the health benefits of VCO, to read if you're interested!)

Pure EPA - will this help the menstrual migraines?

2010-02-23T17:45:00.006+00:00

Hi readers,

Apologies once again for not posting sooner.

I believe the problems I had were side effects from the Maca that I was taking. I was experiencing some awful abdominal cramps, which have since cleared up. I won't be taking the maca in future! If anyone wants to buy my supply, get in touch!

Anyway, the latest thing I'm trying is a product called 'Pure Epa' from a company called Mind 1st. Click on the link if you'd like to read more about it (it's a UK company, but if you Google 'Pure EPA', you may find a supplier in your country).

On the website, it says that you have to take it for 12 weeks so really see the benefit. I have been taking it for 1 week so far, and I already love it! I won't go into too much detail about the benefits I've experienced so far, but let's just say - my husband isn't complaining! ;)

Also, I'm back on the celery juice! (I took a break from it while I was I'll).

Adding Maca to the Mix (Migraine related)

2009-12-17T14:19:00.001+00:00

Hi,

It's day 7 of my cycle, and on reflection, I think it has been a fairly successful one.
I did have a headache on day 1, which I managed to get under control with OTC painkillers. It only lasted about 4 hours (which is a great improvement on the 7 day stretch I have had in the past!)

The things I tried this month were listed in this post.

In that post, I listed a product called Maca, which I was looking into at the time. Since then I have purchased some, and have been taking them alongside all the other stuff (I was using a fairly small dose) but didn't notice any effects from them at the time. I since decided to up my dose, and will let you know how that goes (sorry I forgot to post these details sooner). The main reason I decided to take them is that:

I believe my headaches/migraines to be hormonal.
Maca is reported to help to normalise/balance hormones.
If you remember my previous post here about oestrogen/estrogen dominance - it's supposed to help with that side of things too, from what I have read.
Maca is believed to help with many health issues (google it and see for yourself) which I think I might benefit from. Only time will tell. I'll update about this once I've taken it for a while longer at the increased dose.

As for the forthcoming cycle (Dec '09 - Jan '10) I will continue on the following regime:

Celery Juice in the mornings
Magnesuim Supplements 3 times per day on an empty stomach
Pantothenic Acid Supplements (vitamin B5) once per day (with food)
Maca Supplements
The 'Water Cure' all day every day. I drink a pint of water straight after my celery juice, and make sure I have at least 4 pints of water per day, along with a dash of real sea salt (I'm using Maldon).

And - if you have anything you can suggest which might be of use, then please, drop me a line! The comments section can be used, to contact me. Please feel free to share any ideas you may have!

2009-12-09T09:36:00.001+00:00

Hi Readers,

So far it has been a good month, with no migraines - yay!

I have continued to drink the 'celery juice' each day, and it seems to be helping (and having a fantastic effect on my skin too!).
Also, I have maintained 'the water cure', by following the recipe as per the watercure website.

My next cycle is due to begin on Friday 11th Dec, I will post the progress as I go along, as usual.

If anyone else is trying this, I'd love to hear from you!

The power of Celery Juice (Nov 09 - Dec 09 cycle)

2009-11-25T11:00:00.000+00:00

Hiya readers,

I have to say that I was very impressed with the 'Celery Juice' experiment last cycle! I had a couple of headaches, but at no point did they turn into migraines. I got through the whole experience without needing to take a Sumatriptan tablet (yay!). Just a couple of Ibuprofen.

Also, I have been continuing with the Pantothenic Acid supplements, Magnesium Citrate Supplements and the Water Cure (which you can read all about if you follow the link on my post regarging that recently).

I've been taking the Magnesium since June 09, however, I only added the Pantothenic Acid, and the Water cure to my regime a couple of days before my new cycle began, so I doubt that they would have had much of an effect in such a short time.

This is why I think the celery juice is the main thing that has helped this time. I took the celery juice for a good couple of weeks before my new cycle started.

I've been using the celery juice as a preventative - I juice up a big batch, and freeze it portions, and I drink a portion first thing in the morning every day. I haven't had a migraine since. Also, I have recently had what I think was swine flu (normally when I get colds/flu, I also get a migraine) but I was surprisingly migraine-free for the whole time that I was ill. Fab!

It's certainly helped this cycle, however, I'd prefer to not even get so much as a headache, and so I'm continuing to read around and research different things which may help.

One thing which has grabbed my eye recently, is a supplement called 'Maca' (which can be obtained in capsule or powder form) it is said to be beneficial for a variety of things, including helping to balance the hormones (which is what I believe is causing these migraines, seeing as I get them at ovulation and menstruation) and all sorts of other benefits. Google it for yourself and see what I'm talking about!

So, for this month, this is my regime:

Celery Juice in the mornings
Magnesuim Supplements 3 times per day on an empty stomach
Pantothenic Acid Supplements (vitamin B5) once per day
Maca Supplements (haven't decided what dose to start on yet, if any of you have tried it, please let me know what dosage worked well for you!)
The 'Water Cure' all day every day. I drink a pint of water straight after my celery juice, and make sure I have at least 4 pints of water per day, along with a dash of real sea salt (I'm using Maldon).

Also, if you're interested in following the progress of this blog, there is a link on the right of the page, which will send you an update whenever I update this blog. It's an automated service, so your e-mail address does not get passed on to me.

And - if you have anything you can suggest which might be of use, then please, drop me a line! The comments section can be used, to contact me, and if you don't want your comment published on here, let me know, as I moderate them anyway. Please feel free to share any ideas you may have!

I'm due to ovulate in a few days, so it will be interesting to see what happens then!

Edited to add: since I have been following the regime above, I have noticed that my facial skin is looking and feeling much better (smoother & less blemishes) and also, the skin on my elbows is lovely and soft again, like it was when I was a kid! It's worth doing just for that!

Lou

PS, I have included a menstrual cycle ticker in my signature - not because I'm trying to conceive (I'm not) but so that it may make it easier for you (and me) to follow my progress!

Progress so far (Oct 09 - Nov 09 cycle)

2009-11-15T17:58:00.000+00:00

Hi readers,

Here's the progress of my current cycle so far:

New cycle has begun (Oct 09 - Nov 09)

2009-11-13T11:51:00.001+00:00

Hi readers,

My new cycle has begun today.

Since my last post, I have continued with the Celery Juice, Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5), and the Water Cure (see previous post for links).

I have also continued the Magnesium Citrate Supplements (I've been taking this since June).

So far, I'm feeling pretty good, and I don't seem to have had too many of the usual PMS symptoms going on and I don't have a migraine, although I have my Sumatriptan tablets on hand just in case anything develops!

I'll keep you all updated as I go along
Lou :)
