My story
At the height of my own migraine suffering, I was hospitalized because the symptoms of my migraines so closely resembled stroke: disrupted vision, numb limbs (specifically the left arm), confusion and difficulty with speech. These were replaced by unbearable head pain and uncontrollable vomiting.
Migraine is typically described as a condition with symptoms that include headache (characterized by throbbing pain usually on one side of the head); aura (visual disturbances); nausea and vomiting; sensitivity to lights, sounds, smells or movement; dizziness; difficulty concentrating; and diarrhea. In rare cases those experiencing a migraine may suffer weakness, language difficulties or other neurological disorders. Migraines are typically believed to last from 4-72 hours and disrupt regular activities or prevent all activity during that time.
“For many years, scientists believed that migraines were linked to the dilation and constriction of blood vessels in the head” “…Researchers [now] believe that migraine is the result of fundamental neurological abnormalities caused by genetic mutations at work in the brain.” [1]
As migraines became more disruptive and severe in my life, I became desperate and began to seek answers as I wondered, “why is this happening to me?”
I was surprised again and again by the tepid answers I received from my general physician and the neurologists I visited.
At my most pessimistic, I interpreted their lack of treatment information as disinterest, but what I have more subjectively come to understand is that the causes of migraine are so varied that it is difficult to tell any one person exactly what to do to make them stop.
“How do we treat this condition?” was my next question and initially, I didn’t know enough about it to trust my own judgments. I was run through a trial of tests and medications that had little or no effect on the frequency and severity of the increasingly common migraines I suffered and was given a list of ‘commonly cited migraine triggers’ to avoid.
Diet specific information was delivered with a wave of the hand and disclaimed with ”…scientific evidence supporting a link between diet and migraine is largely anecdotal “.
Years ago, I believed this to mean my diet could not affect, positively or negatively, the frequency or intensity of the migraines I suffered. I look back now and think HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO WRONG?
