Migraine relief: I found that Magnesium does help reduce migraines, however
avoiding diarrhea is difficult. Magnesium glycinate was the best for me. If you
take thyroid medicine, don't take calcium or magnesum for four hours before
or after the thyroid, as it inteferes with it, according to my doctors.
Food allergies have been a major problem for me, especially corn, aged
cheese, chocolate, nuts and seeds. Since being on the celiac diet, however, the
migraines stopped totally (six months now)! Am still taking magnesium, about 400mg
in AM and PM, and the thyroid at noon.
I also found a special cold Elastogel helmet that really helps. It's made of
flexible material, Elastogel, and I keep it wrapped in a plastic bag in the
freezer. Putting it on and laying down for half an hour, with half a pill of
Bellergal, stops the headaches. However, you have to do it quickly, when the
headache starts. http://www.elastogel.com/ look at products, then cold products
for the head, the cranial cap. I wear a medium size, with a size seven head.
It's been marvelous!
Cordially,
