The responses to my post about having discovered that most of my  
migraines seem to be caused by the lack of protein in my body due to  
celiac disease were refreshing and informative because almost everyone  
questioned whether or not I had it "right."
I loved receiving those responses because it reminds me that after  
being diagnosed with a seriously sneaky disease that probably went  
undetected in me for at least 15 years and in others for perhaps a  
half-dozen decades or more, I should remain vigilant about this and  
other health considerations.
It feels as though that is what was behind people trying to tell me to  
try their diet, or that a lack of protein could not possibly cause  
migraines, and it actually makes me happy to think of all those people  
out there "keeping their own minds in their own heads," as my  
grandparents used to say. No more "reassurance visits" with doctors  
for us!
I received recommendations to pursue this further, including several  
recommendations for the Rosedale Diet (hope I have the name right),  
eliminate all grains, eliminate soy, eat only raw, going lactose-free,  
going carbohydrate-free and going high-protein however I do it.
For the moment, when I feel a migraine coming on, I eat some low-fat  
cottage cheese or a protein bar and follow that with a high-protein  
meal, and this seems to be working. I've gone for as many as 17 days  
without a migraine, and then only get one if I try to run on 4 hours  
or less of sleep and/or have more than 1 alcoholic drink on less than  
a full night's sleep.
However -- I will remain suspicious in honor of the good intentions in  
al those emails!
