Migraines could it be from working out? (posted on RNY Board too)

I do have a history of Migraines but I haven't been getting them until about the last 3-4 weeks... I also started doing water aerobics in that same time frame... Monday it was so bad I went to the ER and they gave me some pain meds... I did class today and another migraine, It's not as "bad" as the one one Monday... When I take the liquid Lortab it Burns in my pouch so bad and I dry heave for like 2 hrs... I will call my Dr tomorrow... here is my ??? Not every time at my class does the instructor ask us to find out our heart rate but today she did... She said it should be between 12-14 mine was 18 I thought ok I'm just working hard... Could that be causing the headaches? I will ask Friday morning at class what if our heart rate is higher and should I do mine more often? If any of you can shed some light on this I would be happy to figure this all out! Thanks Jenn

Jenn, I do not really know anything about migraines. I am not sure about your HR being 18 either. I am sure that your doctor can shed a lot more light on this situation than a non medical professional can. What kind of answers did you get on the main board last night? Was there any info that was helpful? How about posting on the Exercise and Fitness board? Maybe Jeremy Gentiles will be able to answer your question. He is the exercise guru that oversees that board. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/fitness/a,messageboard/boa rd_id,5104/  Chris

Chris, Thank you... I posted over there as well... I  didn't even know about that forum thanks for the link... I woke up at about 4:45 this morning and headache is gone! PTL!  I hope you have a great day! Jenn

Jenn, sorry I could not respond faster to your post here. I saw your e-mail pop up while I was writing to a girl in MN that is a friend of a friend of a friend . . .  that is in the early process of getting WLS. She is so excited in that she just got her appointment to see the surgeon in March. Dave more than me has been helping her along through the whole process. I turned her onto OH and interject when I can when she e-mails us both. But this e-mail I just had to affirm her and lift her up as to that she is going the right direction and that God has opened several windows and doors for her. She is a follower also. Need to get ready for work. Chris

Jenn, I understand completly about the migraines I would get them alot and it would send me to the ER too. I would get a ****tail and was so regular with going there that the dr rarely saw me and would just order the ****tail. I get them around that time or when really stressed. May I ask where are you taking water arerobics? I live in Harvard which is not that far from Woodstock just wondering because I was looking into Healthbridge in Crystal Lake. Also another off the wall question, you look a lot like someone I used to work with and she said that her sister had the surgery. Her name was Debbie (not sure of the last name) she used to work at Sullivan's in Harvard and now lives in Hebron. Just wondering if you were her sister because in your picture you look a lot like her. Hope things get better for you Erin. I know your pain though

Hi Erin... Yes the ****tail works well for my migraines put me to sleep LOL but takes the headache away... I almost went to health bridge, as the girls from my support group go there but they meet in the evening... I go to the Rec Center in Woodstock an M, W, & F mornings... I don't have a sister named Debbie, they say we all have a twin... she maybe mine... I grew up in Streamwood, Illinois. I hope you are doing well stay warm... Jenn
