I have suffered from Migraines since I was 13. I tried all the medications out there, did neuro work ups, everything, but no medicine works, except the "migraine cocktail" they give you via IV at the ER, but I HATE the drugged out feeling. I finally tried having braces on my teeth as I am a grind my jaw and after 3 years of wearing them it did help. I think I had two causes of the migraines, hormones & the teeth grinding.

Now, I am almost 3 months out of sleeve surgery & am beginning to get them again! My GYN told me that estrogen is stored in fat cells (I have a major sensitivity to estrogen, can't do birth control because of it) & I am afraid that's why the new migraines are starting: my body is shedding fat & therefore releasing the estrogen into my system.

I do NOT want to suffer through these again as they are completely debilitating (I have to just close myself off in a dark room for days) and none of the medication really works.

I saw a post that said CoQ 10 can help, so I will try that, but does anyone have any suggestions? I know I am not getting enough Water & that can cause headaches as well, so have been upping my intake.

Thanks!

Amber

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
