Pre op liquid diet + migraine
Im on day 3 of my 2 week liquid diet. I've been slowly doing protein shakes and replacing meals before this as I know how my system works and how I react to dramatic changes. I suffer from severe migraines and have since I was about 3. I've read a lot of the carbs and sugar cuts is what makes the headaches/migraines come about. My question is, outside of my prescribed mess, is there anything out there that could help keep everything mild? Everything I would normally do to help get rid of migraines is a big no no right now (caffeine, sugar, carbs, etc). Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and had any success in curving the head pain. Thanks
First few days is sugar / carbs detox. Major headaches for me every time, even now, when I get off eating too many carbs.
If you toughen is out -you should see huge improvements in day 4-6.
I get really constipated when doing low carbs and that triggers my migrane. Keeping the guts moving, complete BM every day minimizes my headaches...
Sometimes I wake up with one, that is gone soon after I had a very good BM...

On day two I had a mind blowing migraine with all the fun sounds hurt, light hurt, smells hurt. I took my typical migraine meds they kinda helped. I staid home from work, thought I was dying, and laid in bed all day.
Maybe it was a migraine brought on by no carbs, maybe it was just a no carb headache. Whatever it was cleared into a typical headache on the 3rd day then went away.
