My experience-Healthy fiberous food a trigger
I am diagnosed with Classic Migraines with Aura. I am an a long term preventative medicine that works very well. Went from having a constant aura and 10+ migraines a month with vomiting to vomiting once a year and a migraine once every few months.
Triggers: menstruation, coffee but not caffeine (recently found after cutting it out), high oxalate foods like greens and beans, low barometric pressure.
I'm not sure if this is new or something I didn't notice previously because I had migraines so frequently so I've yet to discuss it with my doc but will be doing so next appointment.
I was gluten free, no sugar or additives, and low oxalate, for 2-3 years and lost a good amount of weight. Found some trigger foods too.
More recently and I've noticed this in the past but thought it was related to oxalates because high ox food would make me vomit and cause head pain.
If I eat something high in fiber and too much of it. I get a migraine with nausea. It feels like my stomach doesn't want to work. With bad 10 pain migraines in past I've vomited up undigested food. Mostly food high in fiber.
Today it was two bowls of oatmeal. They were certified gluten free.
I know it's bad- and not my migraine doc, and not my PCP, but one of my other GPs has counseled me on this stressing whole foods- if I eat pure junk food. I have less migraines. But whole foods make my tummy and head hurt and I feel really sick.
Apples, carrots, oats apparently, in the past greens and beans have been triggers. While we all have our own individual triggers- anyone else experience this?
I don't have any food allergies I'm aware of aside from gluten.
Next trial will be a low fiber but still clean diet because you can't really thrive on snack food. As mentioned above yes I will be talking to my migraine doc and likely my PCP about it too.
